I have found them to be pretty hardy, stored in my basement (cool, dry,
with de-humidifier) in boxes with 15 each, stacked one on top of the other.
Ideally they would be stored on edge in racks, in a good zip-lock bag with
a dessicant, but mine have generally been happy without that.

I have just gotten about 80 RK05 disk packs for a
PDP-11. They have been
stored in an office environment, but most have not been used for at least
15 years. Some have labels indicating they were cleaned by SCOPUS in the
late '80s.
Any recommendations on the best way to store them would be helpful.
If anybody is interested in some of them, they can be had for the
shipping. Contact me offline if you are interested and we can talk about
the details. I am located in Ohio, USA 45865.
