Yea, but every 1.7 years ya gotta.

We had a RAID 5 device that ran for about lat long before a reboot.

I always like to see that. Weird how the mindset has changed though, instead of uptime and availability containers are up/down all the time. Different way sure, but I think its a bit odd considering uptime was once really important.

Not exactly the same, but this morning I saw a Cisco switch that had been up for 7 years.

I few years ago, someone set up a project to reboot some of the old stuff, I think they only tackled things over 8 years. I think we maxed out at about 12.

With the advent of the gui and ease of management, a lot of hardware problems I run into are not the actual device, but someone poking things they should not poke.
in other words a picnic.

I would try to keep our Oracle database servers up for at least a year, longer if possible so the "query brain" would have plenty of data to work with. Oracle would send out their security updates every quarter but thankfully they never applied to anything we had running. The servers were on their small subnet and never had issues with the stuff that Microsoft would try to push out on us and our Sun servers could be patched without having to reboot.
