Sounds irrelevant in both cases. A business will use real redundancy with extra drives rather than hoping to maybe recover data from a dead drive. If the drive dies they probably just pull it and rebuild, which is likely quite a lot better (from a technical perspective, excluding storage space) on an SSD (much higher write rates restore the redundancy faster).
Electronic failures are technically possible, but tbh I think that's so unlikely nowadays it's not really worth considering. The amount of electronics in everyday life and almost none of them ever break for reasons related to the elctronics themselves.
- bestouff 2y agoElectronics don't fail because it's all so brand new. And this is due to programmed obsolescence or whatever you call it where software will force you to throw it while the hardware is still perfectly functional.
- Panzer04 2y agoSure, stuff goes out of date, but rarely does it fail for hardware reasons. Practically the only electronic components that fail with any regularity are chemical components like electrolytic caps and batteries.
