Flashdrives are not forever storage. Flashdrives corrupt literally all the time. And old flashdrives that sit around also corrupt while not in use. If you care about your data, store that data in multiple places. Follow the data hygiene rules. 3 2 1: 3 copies of the data, on 2 different storage mediums, with 1 copy off-site.

forever is a long time. distributed copies might last beyond my time. eh
Got it so buy a second drive, and pay $15/mo to the cloud storage company.
If you’re willing to deal with managing it, 125gb on s3 seems to cost about $3 per month.
You think you can do better for 15 dollars go ahead.
15? I pay like 80 euro for 1 year m365 family. That’s 5 Terrabyte for 80/12=6,66 euro/month.
That’s less then a cent per GB. Much less. Combine that with Amazon photos (Unlimited photo storage, included with prime) and i’m set.
There is no cheaper storage plan.
