[QUOTE="Tom.G, post: 6839848, member: 581973"] Yup! Fans, hard drives, and power supply have all been replaced a few times. Since this is a Tower chassis most is not a major project. Power supply replacement is an annoyance though, too many cables! The other failure item is the connectors for and on the plug-in boards (memory, video). No catastrophic failures there, they just have an occassional need to be pulled, blown out with 'canned air', and re-seated a few times, this is done yearly (roughly). DIsc drives last about 10,000 hours of run time. The predominant failure mode is the positioner bearings wear out leading to many seek errors, especially on the drive with the system Temporary files. There have also been a few head crashes. [/QUOTE]
