Some systems have physical space for only a single drive - think most
laptops!

True - I'm a laptop user myself. But as I said, I'd assume the whole disk
would fail (it does in my experience).

If your hardware craps differently to mine, you could do a similar thing
with partitions (or even files) as vdevs. Wouldn't be any less reliable.

I'm still not Feeling the Magic on this one :)
