Further preventing my hard drive from breaking?

[xXCrossfireXx]

I've been reading about how hard drives can be less reliable than SSDs, since things like head crashes can happen. My question is, can I do anything to help prevent a head crash?

That's all that you can do. Even if you're very cautious, a crash could happen; that's why backups are important. SSDs can't suffer from a head crash, but they also fail.
