I inventory all my notable possessions using Homebox so at the very least my family knows the value of all my gear. I don’t expect them to preserve most of the data on my servers (there’s little reason for them to) so I just have documentation on how to access what they’ll need to settle my affairs and sanitize anything further containing private data/records.
I have a detailed doc for wifey in that case. Which drives to take out of the rack where our gargantuan archive and its backups live. And how to access it.
Also how to keep the smart home alive as long as possible and how to revert to a dumb homeif it overwhelms her.
Give the RAMs and GPUs to our charitable works.
Destroy all other HDDs.
Hard to predict the future, but that’s the best I could do for such a case.
