I'd consider disks which firmware can't handle power failure to be
broken. Luckily this hasn't happened to me (yet, heh).
Any disk with on-disk cache is susceptible to data loss if write
barriers aren't enabled (luckily they are enabled by default for ext4).
Unfortunately all file systems don't have this feature, so the only
way to be really safe is to have a battery backup.
