Who knows if something like this will happen or when. So I just use an empty popcorn tin as everyday storage.

At some point I will look for a metal fishing tackle box with dividers for memory sticks.

If you do have advance warning of a Carrington event put your car in the garage and unplug your computers.

In the event of a Carrington event Governments will have to:
....."issue recommendations for residents at home on how to safely cope: unplugging all of your appliances and electronics, disconnecting certain wires and systems, etc."

Like I would trust them to give me good advice?

Heck. I’d expect them to be the ones that cause it first if that were possible.
