For context, I left my gaming PC in a storage unit in a desert environment for nearly 2-3 years without ventilation, I'm concerned about potential data corruption or loss, especially regarding the SSD.

I haven't powered it on, cleaned it, or updated its firmware during this time. What are the realistic chances of data corruption or loss, and how feasible is data recovery at this stage?

(NOTE: Its consumer grade TLC SSD if that makes a difference.)
