I think it's more so you never have to delete anything again or even risk loosing recordings. and it's a rack mount so you wouldn't ever need to see the actual thing.

The answer surely lies in the cloud, and so this machine is already out of date.

It's not a single HDD it's a multi drive setup configured in RAID 5 with the drives being hot swapable.
So chances of it ever dying is very slim.

It's not meant to look pretty. It's a mass storage device to be rack mounted meaning it will be hidden away so you'd never see or hear it.
