Abstract
An electronic device includes persistent storage enclosed within a housing. The housing is configured to protect the persistent storage during shipment of the electronic device by a common carrier. The electronic device may include at least one security door, which when in an open-state, may provide access to at least one of a data port, an aperture, a portion of a display, and/or the persistent storage. When the security door is in a closed-state and possibly locked, the persistent storage may be protected from environmental factors, such as dirt, weather, and tampering. In some embodiments, the aperture may enable airflow though the housing and may be fitted with a filter to remove debris from air that circulates into the housing.
