I had one die in my home server. Hadn’t gotten around to any backups or redundancy yet because it was “just” for configs and metadata for media apps. Took me like 5-10 hours to rebuild the config though which was annoying. Would take me much longer now if it happened again. I no longer have that SSD as a single point of failure in my system.
I’ve owned computers since the 286 was a big deal.
I’ve NEVER had an SSD ”die”

It’s like saying I have lived in my house for 40 years and I have never had a fire.

Lucky you
I’ve gone through two NVMe drives these past few years.
Both just started fucking up and crashing my whole OS with them.
I’d be looking hard at my PSU if I was you.
THAT died and got replaced last month.
Came home from a trip
Plugged the machine in
Popping sound
It was dead
I’d say you won’t have problems with nvme’s dying anymore then.
