SSD+HDD or one SSD?

Question

Iron

Good afternoon!
Tell me about the choice of storage configuration for system units in the organization:
Now we use either ssd 250 + hdd 1tb or one hdd with a possible additional purchase of ssd.
There was a proposal instead of two different disks to use one ssd for 512 GB.
Maybe because of old habits, but I don't like it because of the possibility of data loss and the problem of recovering it.
Should I switch completely to ssd on work machines?

Answer 1

What's the difference with data loss?
Need data? So you have backups.
If there is no backup, then the data is not needed and it does not matter what type of consumable is dead there. It's still long and expensive to restore, even if you manage to restore the necessary files.

Answer 2

SSD+HDD or one SSD?

Depends on tasks.
SSD is fast. HDD is cheap.
If you need cheap capacity to store large amounts of data, you cannot do without an HDD.
But as a rule, in an organization, large amounts of data are stored on a file server, so one SSD on a working machine is enough. The volume is 120-250GB, there is no more sense - not a single employee has more than 100GB of information stored.
The probability of data loss is the same on both SSD and HDD.
Recovery problems are also absolutely identical - we restore from a backup and that's it.

Answer 3

The problem of data loss is solved by backup, what difference does it make on which one you lose data on cdd or sdd, as if you would cry less on cdd
