Gary,
ESD bags for sure.
Segate now uses these cute little clam-shell drive containers. Perhaps you
can get some of them from Seagate.
Rotational drives can be problematic. You could do it by date, but that
does NOT deal with the individual internal degradation of the drive. That
is a real toughy!
Best,
Duncan

Anyone have any experience with these? I was leaning towards the USB/eSata
one along with a couple 1.5TB Seagates to back up my NAS. I plan on
keeping one drive in my fireproof safe and the other will be shipped
offsite. If I do this, what is the best way to store the drives? Static
bags? Vacuum packed? Enclosures of some kind? I am not averse to
spending a few bucks to protect the drives while they are in storage.
Seems like a series of drives in a rotation is a lot better backup strategy
rather than using tape....
