This is over the span of 12 years. A hard drive just failed a month ago at one location...either a seagate or WD drive, not sure. Either way, the only thing that at this point that kept his company running along was the RAID. Had the whole box gone down, or the RAID controller we'd have rebuilt from either the onsite or offsite backup. That would have been a days work gone for his employees, this one day of steady work, easily paid for the RAID that kept him running. The cost of being down one day is much higher.
