Ask this on the cctalk/cctech list. Lots of collectors there who have
experience in this.
If what you are storing is valuable to you, you're just asking for trouble.
Temperature isn't the problem, moisture is, especially when you cool and
warm  something that is primarily made of metal. Your BEST bet is to put
silica or charcoal inside the unit and then put it in a plastic bag and suck
all of the air out, using a straw and your lungs or some electrical help,
then make an airtight seal. I have probably 100-150 antique computers in my
possession and I wouldn't let any of them sit outside all winter.
