Whats the best way to archive data long term while on a budget ?

Gunpachi@lemmings.world to Asklemmy@lemmy.ml – 66 points –

I just need to preserve some old data that I have on my computers, so I was wondering what would be the best way to archive stuff long term.

Blu-ray disks ? Multiple HDDs ? What do you guys suggest ?

Are those... cheap? They don't look cheap.

About £90 for 4 discs, and £30 for the writer, gets you 400Gb storage.

I bought a (nearly) 1Tb thumb drive for £10 last week and copied all my music onto it. I’m thinking of getting a few more for docs and other media and leaving them in my keysafe.
