The only way to be sure is to save it on a quartz matrix. Only issue is it's read-only. Not rewritable ever. Once you etch your data into quartz that's it.
Storage is amazing, though. All of human knowledge (so far) has already been etched into such a storage medium by the UN a few years ago. It fits in the palm of your hand.
Or... you could just follow the 3-2-1 strategy with normal drives and regular scrubs. For most purposes (including a game library) that's way better.
Let's play a game, of how much this would cost today.
But I want my game library to survive the sun's expansion!
