A lot of items could work, but is there something you think we should prioritize first?

I'd add external floppy drives to that, and any means of digitizing VHS tapes and audio cassettes. Many people will need these once in a lifetime to try to recover information of personal value from obsolete media, but almost no one will need them more than once.
