I don't recall what my uptime was, but its only happened to me once, and I
don't think I even had a month of uptime. Ultra 5. Stock configuration,
except that I'm only using the on-board IDE for the cdrom, and using an
adaptec 2940UW-OFW for the HD.

The machine is online, but it's not so mission critical that I can't
transfer its primary services to another box and use it for more heavy
testing.
