So, I have about 12 GB and I want to fill it with files that need archival.

My criteria are:

At risk of becoming lost

Being usable files without specific hardware (needing a software emulator is fine)

Willing to break my rules if I’m.given better ideas

    oh and if you’re interested in archiving, definitely check out the Archive Team!

    they are always running archiving projects, they even participate in preserving reddit content, and they have a connection with archive.org and the Wayback Machine.
    they maintain a virtual machine image that you can run at home even on a simpler PC, and help in their projects. It does not consume much storage actively, only some network bandwidth. It’s basically a distributed archiving tool, a lot of people running it download all kinds of data (good for performance and to avoid restrictions) for the selected project, and upload it to AT for preservation
