A method of making a rotating removable data storage device hub, such as a hub for a micro-floppy magnetic data storage disc, that has a core of plain carbon steel and a primary coating. The hub also includes a vapor corrosion inhibiting layer on the primary coating. The plain carbon steel can have about 0.5% or less carbon. The primary coating can be tin, nickel, zinc, chrome, paints, epoxies, epoxy-urethanes, phenolic resins, and combinations thereof. The vapor corrosion inhibiting layer may include an amine to reduce the rate of oxidation of the plain carbon steel core.
