As regards the data centre equipment; the SSDs and hard drives used for storage would be reusable by regular people. Those will be nice to have.
The memory is the high-bandwidth kind that is not be usable on consumer motherboards. The 'graphics cards' are the size of filling cabinets, require external power supplies and cooling, don't have video outputs, don't have drivers for graphics output. If you don't have a requirement for serious parallel computation with a very high uptime, then it's not worth the cost of powering them up. If/when the bubble bursts, all that shit is going to landfill.
