Offsite tape storage?

Tue Jul 15 15:22:11 PDT 2003

When I've looked at fireproofing requirements for tape media in the past, 
the temperature requirements were much more stringent.
Paper may be ok up to say 350 degrees F while your tape is ruined at over 
maybe... 125 degrees.  Make sure you meet your requirements.
