Looked up the archived microfiche of the LA Times for September 10, 1989.

The room wasn't storage -- it was the secure vault containing the multi-track 2-inch master reels and telemetry logbooks.
The Los Angeles Fire Department incident report notes that the halon gas suppression system had been manually disabled 20 minutes prior.

Who disabled the halon system at 2:00 in the morning?

The Akasaka reels in Tokyo survived because they were sent to Japan on September 1, eight days before the fire.
