Ah, that brings back memories. Had 2 RAID 10 MySQL servers run for a decade without rebooting. One had an app db, the other a stats db, and the two replicated to each other.
Spinning disks and all, I was terrified to reboot them and have the boot disk fail (which was not on RAID).
The main disks failed once or twice which slowed the servers down considerably until rebuild of the raid finished. Very nervous time.
