I don't know if this is pertinent, but an intriguing side fact is that Voyager has an auxiliary warp core.

But if they had to eject their primary core and it exploded, they'd be able to "build" a new one relatively quickly, instead of being forced to return to spacedock for extensive refitting. A handy feature for a long-range starship. (Though I doubt Voyager's Starfleet designers actually had the Delta Quadrant in mind when they included it...) <IMG SRC="http://flare.solareclipse.net/wink.gif"><P>Has there ever been any info on whether the Enterprise-E also has a spare core? They ejected the warp core in "Insurrection" and Geordi said they were "fresh out of warp cores."
