New bare bones PC

SSDs are some of the best upgrades you can do to a system.  Almost every computer failure i've ever had is from a standard hard disk.  I don't miss them at all.

Well, I understand that these can fail as well, but the increase in speed and the constantly shrinking prices definitely make them a no-brainer at least for OS and applications.

Yeah but they’re way less sensitive to crap like lint! Winner winner for systems that aren’t reading/writing a ton to the disk.

Yes, also electrical surges.  HDDs contain moving parts, the spinning drives can be affected by so much more than SSDs can.  We would usually lose 1-2 drives a year here minimum.  We still lose a drive every year or two on our old NAS because it would get so hot.  The new NAS never breaks 95.
