Just had this thought, and realized all my backups had been through a flood. I wound up with several damaged disks, but was able to get all the content off of them, damage was to the outside edges, and most of them didn’t have much data written.
I have a Blu-ray burner, but I’ve never burned one (only a couple DVD’s). Probably never will.
Get some M-Discs and burn a couple of copies of your docs and photos. The theoretical lifetime of M-disc is ~1000 years. Good luck finding a Blu-ray drive in the 30th century though.
