The magnetic media may be stored in the computing room or in an adjacent room. In the latter case, the same environmental conditions should apply in the storage room as in the computing room.
In this room, the floor should be capable of supporting loads of up to 9 to 10 kN/mē.
Magnetic media are sensitive to high-power electromagnetic fields. They should not be stored in the vicinity of electric ducts, lightning conductor down-columns, transformers, etc.
