gollark: That is done in some cases.
gollark: I've heard it said that SSDs are actually MORE reliable than HDDs, because no moving parts, but tend to fail in less recoverable ways.
gollark: Disk failures are rare, needing more speed than HDDs have is common.

gollark: They have backups of that, you realise?
