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 ?

Us-East. Look specifically at glacier, which is long term, near free to store, expensive to remove.

Is it Glacier Deep Archive? I just realized I was looking at the Glacier flexible retrieval prices earlier. US-East lists it as $0.00099/GB (about $1/TB), which is still higher than what you're getting.

Last months bill for my entire Amazon account was $4.72. most of that was the glacier storage.
