Don't use SSDs for long-term storage; do this instead
SSDs are fast and reliable for daily use, and I wouldn't trade mine for use as a boot drive. But you can't trust them for long-term storage once you understand how SSDs and HDDs differ in the way they store data. NAND cells lose their charge over time without power, which means an SSD sitting in a drawer for a year or two might not have all your data when you plug it back in.
