[Shop-talk] Installing a Network device in a safe.

[Jack Brooks]

Temp - Cooler is better.  I don't know what a safe high temperature is.  I
suspect every degree higher reduces the life by some factor, but I have no
idea how much.  See my earlier post about my server system drive. 

A simple remote thermometer will allow the sensor to be in the safe and the
display outside.  The thinner thermocouple cables "should" be able to handle
the safe door closing on it.

I was under the impression that late model hard drives have a built in
health
monitoring capability.At one time I downloaded some software that allowed
you
to see the figures and I believe there were a couple of temp data
points.Whether external drives have that same capability I do not know.

Is there a certain temperature I need to maintain? Is there an effective
way to monitor the temp inside the safe?
