Brake sensors e39 1998 540i touring

I have done the deed and bought an e39 Ordered my Bentleys and am about to order rotors and pads. How many sensors are there and are they likely to need replacing - not expensive items but why bother if it is unlikely to be necessary - in fact is it easy to fit them after re-assembly of rotors and pads? Any real benefit to drilled rotors and maybe harder pads. It is not that I do any track work, but I live at 3000 ft and there are a lot of hairpins.

Thanks!
