Excellent luck in recovering the legacy keys :)

In case of future disk/machine failure, you should create backups using a non-disk backup mechanism, ex: paper. In a blog post, I describe two applications that can be used to print machine-readable data to recover: http://blog.eharning.us/2011/04/key-backup-for-paranoid.html

With a paper backup, it is easy to deal with, so long as you have a scanner and have not let the backups degrade beyond recovery.
