Like I’d imagine there’s gonna be a lot of rain over time if I want this time capsule to last like idk 10 years? 30 years?

Is there like a box so tough its indestructible?

Can animals dig it up if I bury it?

How deep do it bury it?

Is the earth’s magnetism gonna affect the hard drive? (Or is there a better medium?)

Like I want this to be like very low budget, I don’t have millions to build an actual timecapsule like some organizations have done. Is there some cheap box that’s waterproof to protect a hard drive from damage for like 30 years buried in the ground?

    Sorry if this is obvious to everyone, but how would having a hidden hard disk help with living in a dictatorship?

    Couldn’t you just let someone in another country take care of archiving it?

        If it were me, I’d be skimming a little to sell on the side to take advantage of those black market prices.
