Does data stay safer on SSDs or HDDs?
Like if I were to chuck it away and forget about it for 20 years, would the actual data on either degrade or anything?

>20 years

HDDs, and less space (informational) HDD has, the more data is safer.

If you want to store data for 20 years, use par2 to generate parity data and harden it against bit rot.

What's so important that you want to keep for 20 years?
>>
>>57401875
It was an exaggeration
I just want something where my data stays safe

Normally, one would use tape drives to archive data. They're slow, but can hold a lot of data.
For consumer purposes, get something you can disconnect from your machine like an USB stick. Don't forget to encrypt it.

Diskrot starts within 5 years, gotta keep moving em files senpai
