Datacentres work best when you don't have people walking around in them, so it's cheaper to maintain service on a SAN with redundancy than a high-maintenance low-redundancy solution.
I never thought of my record collection as a data centre - does owning two copies of 'Dark Side of the Moon' count as redundancy?
I suspect my attitude to computers is tainted by working in a department where airborne particulates (laser fume and CNC mill) killed hard drives no matter what filters were in place.
It's been less of a problem since retirement...
