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 ?

By the time blu ray started becoming popular optical media were basically dead already as a data storage medium so those aren’t particular common either.
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.
