I remember a long time ago in another world when the company basement
flooded -- the water then proceeded onwards and upwards stopping only upon
reaching the bottom of the TOP (a wee shout) 3330 drawer........
Fortunately all the disks had been removed, when the water started to enter
the computer room, and moved to 'higher ground'.

I would be a lot more concerned about a subterranean machine room than
an earthquake. Water has an uncanny knack for finding the lowest point
as any owner of a basement would know. Its hard to flood anything on the
2nd floor without knocking the head off a fire sprinkler :-)
