That was kindof the point. Everything has its pros and cons.
Ive been with ISPs that went the extreme route on stability and it generally wasnt worth it. Id rather have script routines to zip individual directorys and copy them to other machines. Whenever equipment fails you might as well reconsider, purchase upgrades, rebuild the site with some of what was there and upgrade others. The cost and extra security headaches to get instant recovery or invisible crashes never seemed worth it to me for most sites.
