The last time I worked with a ~8 year old server, it used to go through hard drives at a rate of 1 every 2 months. While we could replace them easily and it was RAID so there wasn't any data loss, I personally would've got fed up of replacing HDDs every couple of months.
Also, most of my experience is with rented dedicated servers and they just give me a new one completely so I never really see if they're fully scrapped.
