The initial release of Prometheus was in 2012 so no one have tried it yet :D. I am not super expert but I think 50 metrics is manageable on such retention period (in your formula you forgot to take the labels into consideration). But keep in mind prometheus has no data protection schemes given it is a very long period I suggest using another storage system coupled with prometheus like M3db or victoria metrics
