Disk failure or corruption is unique to Windows?

Is there some magic in all other operating systems that prevents disk
failures?

Not necessarily, but Windows has been subject to an extreme amount of code
bloat, in comparison to some other OS's, which tends to make the effect of
any disk problem worse for Windows.
The problem is not the OS, it's the lack of backing up or making hardcopies
of data one wishes to save before the disk fails.
