Should I worry about BD-R disc rot in my archival storage?
My family has a collection of important pictures, documents, and videos which are currently stored on CD-R, and have been since 2005. Ten out of the ~250 discs have been destroyed by disc rot, but luckily there were redundant copies. I am planning on migrating the collection to BD-R, because they seem much more robust. I'm also going to use ECC to protect the discs (https://github.com/speed47/dvdisaster)

Are Verbatim BD-R discs stable enough to last several decades?
For my optical backups I use this additional software, called DVDisaster. I create image with 10 to 15 % space left and let the program augment the image with recovery data. After that's done, I burn it to optical media.

Durable physical storage for 64 GB of data?
dvdisaster has returned to life too.

Optical media such as M-Disk for archival storage
I hope you use dvdisaster to protect your data. If you use it on an ISO before burning it, you can make a bit-exact recovery in most cases, even discarding the zero padding introduced sometimes on re-ripping the disc and mangling things.

Optical Discs Aren't Dead.....
Even with archive-grade media you should use something like dvdisaster to generate error-correction-code (ECC) files for each disk (rule-of-thumb, 20% of each disk should be filled with ECC data. That only leaves you with 80 GB if you are using 100 GB BDXL M DISCs)
- I have some old CDs which were burnt around 2000 - they're not reading, is there any way I can access the data on them? Any techniques I should know? Thanks

Help with NAS choice for Backups and Plex with ability to transcode
I've read this guide which has been helpful. I'm familiar with building a pc, but still want to make sure I build something reasonable if that would be more cost effective in the long run for my use.

Is it sacrilege? Having a separate fast pool/server and archive pool/server
Nope, that's what I do (albeit for a different reason).

why won't my ups turn on?
Can confirm that APC warranty replacement is very quick. 6 days from RMA filing to installing replacement.

NAS Hardware Recs
Wrote a guide for this. Basically start at how much storage you need and work backwards.

At that size you should get your home wired for Ethernet.

Will Mesh WiFi help with 'weak connection' issue?
Get your home wired for Ethernet. Wi-Fi won't be able to cover that well.
