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 ?

Not a reason to not read the data spec.
If they not mention it there, it can be expected to run it in a single bay environment and not in an array environment.

These drives had a high failure rate whether they were in a raid array or just on their own. I get that they weren't designed for raid, but just using them in an array didn't cause them to fail.
