Socketed RAM is fine, but what do you mean by storage doesn’t fail often? It’s usually the first part that fails on any computer.

Not since we got rid of spinning rust. Most common failures are batteries, and the parts of the computer subject to direct abuse by the user: keyboard, connectors, the display, etc.
My Macbook M1 which I use extensively since 2021:
Data Units Read : 1267900331 (649.16 TB)
Data Units Written : 904681650 (463.20 TB)
power_cycles : 667
power_on_hours : 9611
and yet it's still only:
available_spare : 100%
available_spare_threshold : 99%
percentage_used : 16%
I don't expect it to fail anytime soon.
