Hard Drive Climate Risks & Data Loss Prevention in Pittsburgh
Climate Zone: humid continental
Hot summers and cold winters with year-round precipitation
Pittsburgh's humid-continental climate brings cold winters with snow and ice, creating condensation damage when drives move between cold outdoor conditions and heated indoor spaces. Summer humidity accelerates corrosion on stored equipment. Always allow drives to acclimate to room temperature before powering on.
Extreme cold can make drive components brittle. Allow drives to reach room temperature before powering on. Use insulated packaging for winter shipping.
General Storage Recommendations
Keep drives at 50-80°F with 30-50% relative humidity. Store in anti-static bags away from direct sunlight and magnetic sources. When shipping, use original packaging when possible or pack securely with bubble wrap in a sturdy box.
