Keep multiple copies on multiple hard disks/DVDs/storage media(atleast 2) and some on online SCM like bitbucket/gitlab/your-server.

Make a Note on how to build the project with exact dependencies cos by the time I have to reuse it the build instructions might be incompatible with my current system.
Keep installers of all tools required because you may never know when a tool gets deprecated.

Have multiple backup strategies since every strategy has a weakness.
