Long-term storage reliability of various media

Solution 1:

There' some fine article at LinuxTECH.NET on Best reliable long-term data storage media which might answer your question at least partly. Other sources of interest may include:

  • A slide on Long Term Data Storage 2007
  • Server Fault's Q&A Tape vs SSDs backups regarding long-term storage reliability
  • SuperUser: What medium should be used for long term, high volume, data storage (archival)?
  • SuperUser: How much time until an unused hard drive loses its data?
  • SuperUser: Covenience/Cost/Life expectancy of storage media
  • A PDF about Data Reliability by Hie Electronics
  • ServerFault's Q&A Cost effective, long term archival of video and image data?
  • A PDF on A Fresh Look at the Reliability of Long-term Digital Storage
  • Another PDF: Understanding Data Survivability in Archival Storage Systems
  • Stability Comparison of Recordable Optical Discs
  • Long-Term Usability of Optical Media (maybe a bid broad and no specific statistic details)

Furthermore, it might be worth to investigate some of the following Wikipedia article's references:

  • Digital preservation
  • Enterprise content management
  • Data storage device
  • Archival science

Each of the mentioned documents contains pieces of answers to your question -- though none may be a summary including overall statistics.

EDIT:

A quite comprehensive one is Challenges of Long-Term Digital Archiving: A Survey -- this might include almost all information you are looking for. As probably does the mdisc china lake study...

Solution 2:

The only thing I could find is "Langzeitarchivierung" on the German Wikipedia. It has less information than you asked for, but a lot of references.
