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.

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

SSD for long term audio storage?

Clone Windows OS partitions to a new disk ESXI 7.0
P2V the Windows OS partition. Use Starwinds converter to get the virtual disk with OS only, attach the drive to the VM as a first boot drive, then boot and check the VMs performance. Remove the old logical Windows OS partition on a 7TB disk once confirm the system runs well from the new virtual disk. https://www.starwindsoftware.com/starwind-v2v-converter Another tool you can use for the job is Wim-backup. It does the similar to Clonezilla job but under Windows PE. https://github.com/cregx/wim-backup
