I see no difference regarding storage between the base plate and the pavement. To my knowledge, the base plate in the garage is not insulated from below and is therefore hardly or only slightly (depending on the type of concrete) protected against rising moisture. However, a roof is usually well ventilated and protects against rain. Thus, it remains relatively dry. But I could be wrong.
Much more against storing sensitive items speaks the fluctuation between cold and heat as well as unwanted guests who like to build a cozy nest with [Weihnachtsengelshaar].
