    Are people on average replacing their PC every 3 years or something? Mine’s almost 6 years old at this point (ignoring the SSD which is newer, and the GPU which is older).

      I have a ship of Theseus rig. It’s the same case I got from my dad when he first built his PC in 2014. I’ve replaced every part in this thing at least once. I tend to keep HDDs until they don’t hold enough for me to want them anymore. I use ZFS to manage my bulk storage drives so Im never concerned when a drive dies. A hot spare starts resilvering right away.
