I have a computer that I have only had for a little more than 2 years that 
already has more than 10,000 powered on hours on two disks granted these are 
newer than pata disks

 for my hard drive although this one is sata hard drive although for a desktop 
so it would have less power cycles and less physical movement that can mess up 
the drive. I don't have a 32 bit only laptop handy at the moment and I am 
probably an extreme edge case I have my mom laptop from about 2008 which is 64 
bit and still has a pata drive in it. 

I checked a laptop used from my mom with and it had 9,330 power on hours on a 
pata disk but this particular laptop has a 64 bit processor but came with 32 
bit windows vista. 

These are all in my posession right now of hardware I have on me. All the hard 
drives had zero reallocated sectors. I do understand hard drives eventually 
fail. I don't think they fail quite that often or all die by 10,000 power on 
hours. Although hard drive failure is mostly what hardware failures I have had.
