Notes -
It was his primary windows system, so it has art and photos on it. We're talking ~15TB if not in a raid. A lot of that would also be dev work, games, and just junk, which I don't need to save, but I want every bit of his photos and art I can save. His first retirement project was going to be making more prints of his favorite digital art & photos, and I expect over time my daughter and I will do just that.
Thanks for the data point. I'm keeping memory in mind, too. If it's the motherboard and the drives are in a raid, I'm SOL for this system. I've gotten backups of all the NAS and external raids, and I've got the SD cards for his cameras. I think without the drives on his computer I'll mostly be losing his newest artwork, which is most likely in an unfinished state. And maybe I'm just making myself feel better.
