With SSD storage, what what your thoughts on redundant storage devices (e.g RAID1), is it a waste, a nice to have or a must?

what are your experiences and thoughts on this ?

Appreciate your opinion, as I will probably move from HDD to SSD.

    Like others said: it depends.

    In my opinion the most important thing to have is an off-site backup. If you have achvieved that, it’s only a matter of how long you are willing to wait for the recovery. If your answer is something like “it cannot wait” then you should go with at least raid 1 and consider additional meausres for the event when your whole array fails.
