I would never suspend to RAM or disk, far too error-prone in my experience. (Plus serializing out 128GiB of RAM is not great.) I just leave my machine running "all the time." My most recently retired disks (WD Black 6TB) have 309 power cycles with ~57,382 power-on hours. Seems like that works out to rebooting a little less than once per week. That tracks: I usually do kernel updates on the weekend, just in case the system doesn't want to reboot unattended.
