HDDs are cheaper and better for long term storage, but are obviously slower.

In any case you should have at least
2 physically separate backups of anything really important. Yeah when SSD's fail they usually do it in style, one minute going next Dead. Just had a customers whose SSD Failed, thankfully he had only just done a backup the previous day As well as having all the important data backed up on line automatically. Cant beat auto backups :)

Large businesses with enough money, and the desire for that kind of storage, I expect.
