A good example that a high load cycle count doesn't mean that your
disk is required to die.  That one is quite large and I am glad to
hear that it is still working well.

Or until the next kernel security upgrade is posted and you need to
reboot into the new kernel.  The 2.4 series "seemed" (subjective
feeling) more long term stable in general than the 2.6 series has
been in the last couple of years.  I am sure that someone has already
analyzed the DSAs to show the required reboot rates.  :-)
