What do people do in a situation where you need to format your PC and you no longer have the installation disks for anything? At that point do you just back it up and the disk is useless anyways?

Install Gentoo

You mean drivers? You can get that stuff online, assuming your hardware isn't too ancient.

If you mean softwares, I don't know what to tell you. Just pirate it.

Not necessarily asking "what do you do" but more of " Am I a pleb for keeping these disks around and treating them gold? "

>>58276429
install gentoo or some other linux

Yes, of course. Any software/driver on those disks will be outdated in a matter of months (since that disk was burned, which might be months before you bought them).
Note down the product names of all your components and download everything you need from the vendor's site before you do a reinstallation.

I just install Gentoo. You should too.
