We had 4 real raids, and several computers with mirrored drives. One drive fails, we pull it and replace just it. Some drives just run forever. I found most RAID drives that failed just had errors in the master boot record area. We would format them, and use them as data drives. They worked fine for years as a data drive.
We had one system running Win 2000. The original boot drive was still in it and working fine, and it was on 24-7-365 for 17 years.
