Best way to store critical data is on mechanical drives in RAID configuration for mirroring. I love SSD drives I only install my OS and games to them.

I can't think of any reason not to do a RAID-1 mirror with SSDs either. Seems like it ought to work as well as with rotators.

Works for a server sitting on the floor, that can't be tipped over. For my laptop which I drop from time to time, I use SSD, and back it up as often as it changes (i.e. days). If I had critical data that changed more rapidly I would probably do an online backup.
