It's been at the datacenter for too long and it needs a new purpose. The 110gh/s will only generate about $1 a day, so it's not a windfall fortune. If you pick one of the options that donates to an org, state the organization that should receive the donation.

According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

Fully working S1's were about $100 last month, they're worth maybe $70 now.  Your 1/2 functional one is worth about $35 then.  Not really worth the time worrying about it unless $35 is like a week's salary.  I would sell it for cheap in the marketplace here letting the buyer know it's 1/2 dead.
