The best hard drives??

Tangential to this, I've long wondered about some things relating to
SSDs.  Are there any solid figures on their retention period after years
of being unpowered?

The reason I ask is that I've long been in the habit of simply shelving
an old hard drive when I upgrade or replace a system.  I've got hard
drives that still work that hail back to the days of OS/2 1.1; some
larger ones go back to the 1970s.
