Try telling that to my wife when one of her programs gets trashed. Some
shows are literally never on again, and not available online. We had one
instance a few years ago when we lost about 200 recordings and I never
heard the end of it.
Since going to RAID 5 and later 6, I've had at least three drives that
had to be replaced under warranty. Had I not been using RAID, I would
have lost recordings.
My point is that, for some people, it's definitely worth a couple
hundred dollars for a little peace of mind.
