Does anyone happen to know the MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) specs for the 40-Meg Quantum drives (9400-300-306-NA)that were used in the 2K?

I have several that just passed the 70,000-hour mark & am trying to work up a risk assessment, but I need the spec.

Thanks whoever can assist.
 
Never mind
Found the answer in some old vendor documentation. Doesn't mean it's correct but it's something to refer to

MTBF: 625,000 Hrs (umm, right... - that's 71 years)
Service life: 5 years (that's more like it)
Warranty: 3 years from Quantum (who sold out to Maxtor who sold out to Seagate)
