I also want to be sure that if I go back in ten years, the data will all still be intact. It feels like cards or flash drives are the way to go, but is one better than the other?

What I'm envisioning is like a bunch of 32 or 64gig cards/thumbs, one for each time period (6mos? 1 year?) of eg, photos, files, etc.

I don't want all my eggs in one basket, as they say.
