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 ?

    The only reason blu ray still exists is that you can’t buy (as in: own) movies in a high quality format otherwise.

    If the publishers got the sticks out of their arses and offered file downloads for purchase, I wouldn’t see a single reason to buy a physical disk other than sentimentalism.

      And that is movie blu ray, data blu ray formats never really got off the ground.
