We had a disk crash some months back on a Sun pizzabox - disks were mirrored (linux software raid), so no problem, except the new drive was a bit smaller than the original. This was a replacement part from Sun^WOracle... Since the machine was a compute node, I ended up reinstalling it instead of waiting for another replacement.
