    many
 hundreds of bits of stuff you need when you are keeping older
 computers alive? 
   For storing stuff in boxes...I avoid cardboard nowadays...I've
   been
 replacing them with those plastic "tubs" that one can purchase at
 discount stores.  They last longer, are waterproof, and more
 stackable.  They've also considerably cut down on the dust level in
 the house. 
 I have an Army surplus ammo case for my spare hard drives (filled
 layers
 of bubble wrap.)  The thing is airtight and actually hisses from the
 pressure change when opened after being kept closed for some time.

 I ran out of room in it and turned out some of my smaller capacity
 drives
 to normal storage.

Good idea. Myself, I use cases from IBM procs. Take the spacer foam 
out, fit
8 standard HD. For laptop drives leave the foam in, fit 20.
