Question

An IT infrastructure manager is reviewing his company's computer assets, particularly the mean time to failure (MTTF) of the PC and server hard drives. The manufacturer of the hard drives typically used in the company states that the MTTF is approximately 11 years. Because servers and some high-priority workstations must operate continuously except for brief periods of maintenance, how many hours, on average, can these hard drives be expected to operate before failure

Answer 1

The numbers of  hours, on average, can these hard drives be expected to operate before failure is 24 hours a day, also seven days a week and 365 days a year.

How many hours can Hard drive last?

The total life-time of a hard disk is said to be 5 years" that is about 43,800 hours of been in constant use.

Note that a key  reliability-linked criterion for the selection of storage components is based on its operating duty that is the numbers of  many hours in a day a drive can be active for.

A lot of HDDs used by Enterprise-class applications are said to be optimized for constant use that is 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and 365 days a year.

Note that a Managed Service Provider (MSP) have to plan for a failure in every 1000 hours that is about 42 days.
