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 ?

OP said “archive”, not “backup”. Glacier is for days you need to keep but rarely touch.
Retrieving from S3 glacier is approximately
10 times the monthly cost of storing the data100 times actually. Didn’t realize retrieval from Glacier isn’t actually downloading it onto your local, but rather just moving it into a frequent access tier S3 bucket from which you can then download, and this download is the expensive part.
