You wake up one morning to find your home server unresponsive, after some investigation you discover a failed NVMe drive taking your self-hosted services and data with it. Perhaps you’re a system administrator and a workstation’s SSD has been silently accumulating errors for months, and now a user is reporting corrupted files.
