But I have not looked at every DVR to know that they do this by default.

Well, yeah, of course not. I was looking for general information. I didn't expect anyone to have looked at everything! Thanks for the input.

And no, you can't really see what's recorded on which drive or what you'll lose once one of them fails.

Taking that as the starting position, and it's logical to think it is,
Most home and small business (<64channels) CCTV DVRs are not mission critical and failed HDD simply gets replaced and life goes on.

...and when the failed HDD gets replaced, does the information on the still-good HDD get lost because somewhere there is, or was, a record of what's recorded on which drive?
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.
