    I would kill for a drive that could hold data for centuries with little to no data rot

      Check out m-discs, optical media that could last centuries if stored correctly. I’m not really banking on centuries, but they should at least last the rest of my life. Just need to get around to migrating my data.

      Warning, the drives themselves are reasonable (you need a special writer but any reader will work), but the media itself is expensive.
