Best Ways to Store Water Long-Term?

Looking to improve my water storage setup for long-term situations. I’ve used food-grade barrels in the past, but I’m wondering about the pros/cons of using stabilized bleach vs. water preservation tablets, especially for multi-year storage. Also curious if anyone’s tried layering charcoal filters in their setup? Open to hearing any tips for keeping stored water fresh without cycling it every 6 months. What’s worked (or failed) for folks here?
 
Food-grade barrels with stabilized bleach have worked best for me—haven’t had funky smells or taste even after 2 years. Has anyone here tried silver ion drops for storage?
