I agree with what Tannin has said.

With Raid and mirror they improve your fault tolerance but with "never lose data" never say never. Sh*t happens. Raid and mirror was most useful when cheap disk drives were very unreliable and good disks were very expensive.

Rapidly changing technology causes another problem because media becomes outdated so quickly.
