Hi all,

What is the medium for long term storage of data other than cloud-storage? Also is HDD better than SDD for longer term storage?

Thanks in advance.

Approx 500GB currently, occasionally access. It is mainly backups of photographs, personal and other family documents for future reference/access if needed

how are SD cards for longevity, storing the memory cards from cameras?

S0 the best method is a HDD for physical storage (looking to replace every 5 or so years) and along with cloud storage.

Out of interest is there a difference between different m-discs are standard m-discs better/more reliable than m-disc BDXL?
Also I can see that you can pick-up usb dvd-burners which support m-disc what is the max capacity m-discs that they can burn? I am guessing that I need to get a blue-ray burner that supports m-disc BDXL for 100Gb?
