This aspect of osds has not changed from filestore with SSD journals to
bluestore with DB and WAL soon SSDs. If the SSD fails, all osds using it
aren't lost and need to be removed from the cluster and recreated with a
new drive.

You can never guarantee data integrity on bluestore or filestore if any
media of the osd fails completely.
