In my experience it always goes wrong at the least opportune time. Before an important zoom call, as you're about to leave for the airport etc. My NAS and services (especially Home Assistant) are so mission critical now that I like to have a warm backup ready to go, even if it's a stop-gap measure.
Yeah I can't argue with that, it's more that I have no financial gain in this setup, so every redundancy set up costs me directly. At some point I have to say that it's good enough.
It's always a trade-off I guess, with cost being the deciding factor.
If I ever build a new house, I'm having a proper rack with room for a redundant server for sure!
