And no I have fault tolerance for my desktop. Back it up to my home made server all the time.
When I think of fault tolerance, I refer to the use of redundant components such as power supplies, drives, controllers, etc. that allow a computer to remain running while something has failed.
In terms of drives that means RAID 1,5, or 10, ideally hot-swappable. When either drive in your striped array fails, it's down.
Heck unless your doing nothing but rendering or encoding on it theres really nothing to tax that CPU for normal use.
I have one application that can fully peg every CPU while in use: Handbrake used for converting video files. :)
