Rig going into short term storage

[VanGoghComplex]

So it looks like I'm going to be relocating for work, meaning a few months max of living in temporary housing. My rig will need to go into storage (I'm thinking of using Pods due to the way the relocation is going to work out) for a little while.

It's pictured below, for anyone who hasn't seen it:


So my plan for the obvious concern of moving an open case like this into storage is pretty simple: I'm going to custom crate it. I've got a simple design planned that should keep it safe.

I plan on draining the coolant to keep weight down and flushing the b'jibbers out of it with distilled water (possibly hot). My concern is about buttoning up the moist inside and letting it sit for so long. Is there anything you guys would recommend for making sure I don't wind up with a growth situation?

If you could leave it filled, that might be ideal. As the coolant itself should keep corrosion at bay, as well as the biocide as well.

I would flush it with distilled and fill it partially with ptnuke then seal it up. Looks like you are using a pastel based coolant, that stuff will gunk up if left. So flush the crap out of it.

Its a open case so why not just flush, drain it then take off the tubes, box them, leave all the ports open. It should dry and be just fine. Assuming you did a good flush when you refill it it would have no more contamination than when you first filled it.
