Title says it all. With winter coming on and some guys opening windows and doors, I was wondering how low they could go.
What's your lowest and if you have ss, please post them.

If we run a64s @ -100C why wouldn't they work in cold ambiant...?

Maybe I asked the wrong ?.
At -20F> will everything still work and will there be a condensation problem?

dew is the problem when its cold outside...
And no, your HDD's stop working at about -20 deg C I guess...
But I've been outside in -2 deg C testing, no problemo, except... Time is an important factor, while dew = water = DEAD gear :) - So work fast..

Everything will still work but sub 0 on HDDs and caps gets kind of touchey. As far as condensation if you had it outside in 20f weather then brought it into a 70f humid room you may have an issue but I doubt it.
