Computer flooring/flooding/water in computer rooms

I visited a hospital where they placed the computer room in the
basement. They installed a sump pump with a battery backup and placed
all of the wiring overhead in trays so it wouldn't get wet. I guess
they thought the computers would run if wet. They also placed a large
laser printer and 8 pallets of paper in the computer room, perhaps a
slight fire hazard.
