It all depends on what each machine is doing and whether you care to pay the premium (and it is a premium unfortunately). On my personal machine I like to live dangerously - it is running RAID0 and has non-ECC RAM - because everything is reproducible and I'm happy to rebuild it periodically. On my home NAS, I do the complete opposite (running RAID1, ZFS and have ECC RAM), because it is the primary data store for things I care about.
