If i'm bringing data I'd want a in depth blueprint of how to construct a reader for that storage medium, ideally inscribed on Gold/Diamond plates, since I've no guarantee that whoever revives me has access to relevant technology.
If I'm doing that anyway I'd probably bury a few copies of my own data, as much as I could get of the internet and the reader blueprints in various places on the earth [and if funding permits in orbits/Lagrange points]. Even if I don't survive I'd value the knowledge being preserved.
