O'Brian has a rant from DS9 about the backups having backups on federation ships.
There is a episode of Star Trek Voyager where some space pirates steal the main computer.
The concept of entire space stations and starships ships being dependent on a single main computer is pretty common across the whole franchise. It seems like a pretty big problem to have a central point of failure that massive.
Ok fair but the main computer is massive so I guess it balances out?
I'm going to have to find that episode, I remember some talk about spares in that one too.
And yet they all fail.
