The environment is 2 Ubuntu Linux servers each with 2

One of the servers in the cluster will be primary and it will fail over to the secondary
until the primary is brought back on line.
Does Ceph make sense for keeping the hard drives/filesystems synced?
No. 2 servers with 2 HDDs is not a sensible deployment for Ceph. Use
drbd, or depending on how (a)synchronous and (de)coupled you want the
instances to be, rsync with or without snapshots.
