		They also are a necessity if you're planning any substantial/wholesale upgrades.  When you start upgrading standard (primarily non-racial) weapons and want to do 20 - 30 ships at a time, you'd better have some minerals stockpiled.... 
 
Or, if you're going to war 'hastily' and need to crank out ships on Emergency Build. 
 
I personally like to use small breatheable planets with small mineral resource values and fill them with Storage Fac's.  I usually plat Advanced Storage Techniques, so I can put 6 Mineral, 4 Rad, and 2 Organic Storage Fac's on each one.
