Build servers offline due to failed SSD

[Dave C]

I think most people who talk about servers and HDs/SSDs are referring to commercial internet-connected servers.

Yes, a private server will likely see a lesser degree of service/use and storage drives can be uprated (the opposite of derated) for greater lifetime.
