if you need, say, about 100-1000 MB of solid-state read-write random-access storage, and you want it to last 100-1000 years, what's your best option?
100 is the requirement, 1000 is the "nice to have" stretch goal fwiw
i just think it would be cool to make a small, useful computer, which you could just put in an airtight vault and open it in 100 years and it'd work exactly the same. it seems like an interesting hobbyist challenge
@jk Gotta go old school for that sort of longevity
1000 years sounds possible
Depending on your definition of computer it's already been done with the Antikythera mechanism

Put that in a vault and not at the bottom of the sea and I bet it'd still work
More useful would probably be a Babbage Analytical Engine built with modern materials
