A struct is a value type. So it is passed by value and is

S DTor is called at the end of the scope. So you can rely on
RAII as long as you use structs.
On the stack yes. But not on the heap:
S[] s = new S[17];
s = null;
the GC will collect the memory eventually, but without calling
any destructor.
On the other hand:
class C { S s; }
C c = new c;
c = null;
in this case, when the gc collects the memory, it will call both
destrcutors. The one of C as well as of S.
