I use a rule-of-thumb that hardware over 5 years old is likely to fail under me. For my file-server/email-server I use RAID enterprise disks with 5 year warranty. When I'm at the end of the 5 years I replace the server completely. My main desktop machine is getting old, coming up in 7 years, and parts keep failing. The motherboard ethernet died a little while ago and I added a ethernet card. CPU fan sometime is noisy. Now when booted into Windows 1 core is 90% busy all the time in "System Interrupt" process. Fedora thinks the hardware is fine.
