    It protects against drive failure. That is the threat I am most worried about, so it’s fine for me.

      drive failure

      Perhaps unintended but very much relevant singular. Unless you’re doing RAID 6 or the like, a simultaneous failure of two drives still means data loss. It’s also worth noting that drives of the same model and batch tend to fail after similar amounts of time.
