Data safes are specifically designed to store electronic media and protect it from fire and other natural disasters. Offices and commercial sites usually require such a storage device to secure certain computer data and valuable documents. Unlike general safes, this type of safe offers extensive protection from humidity, high temperatures and moisture which can destroy its contents.
Electronic media is more sensitive to humidity and high temperatures than paper or other types of materials. It doesn't take much to melt CDs or cassette tapes so it's important to store them in a safe that is heavily insulated and has a higher fire protection rating. A high fire rating is the most important thing that sets a data safe apart from other storage boxes of its kind. Follow the same guidelines for buying typical safes that you will use in your home or office for selecting data safes.
Space is important when choosing a safe. For commercial use, you will need a safe that can hold a large number of documents and valuable materials, so its best choose a large-capacity safe, rather than purchasing a safe that’s too small for your needs.
For home or personal use, a safe that can fit into a corner of a room may work best. Make sure to take accurate measurements of the space where you intend to install your safe for a perfect fit. Wall and floor safes are quite popular because they use up less floor space, but if you want a stand-alone data safe, make sure to choose one that can be bolted down so thieves cannot easily walk away with it.
Aside from fire protection, you will want to invest in a safe that will also offer burglary protection. It’s practical to choose a safe that offers many features, rather than one that only fits a few of your needs. Interior compartments are also a must to organize your electronic media properly. A typical data safe should come with small drawers that can store CDs, cassettes and other media.
