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.

We do a SQL based web app that 600 user have to have, or no business gets done. So we are up during business hours, 98% 14/6 Last phys. year and it would have been 100% if Verizon would get their ducks all in a row. We were 100% on the LAN, but the WAN had some outages do to dead lines. Servers were 100% even during Version upgrades.
