I am in a very similar situation, two servers since 2004 and have
not lost anything.
There is a bug in the ephemeral snapshot code in fossil which used to
cause my server to freeze about once a month, however I never lost
any data; I have since turned off ephemeral snapshots and have had no
problems since then - its a pity though.
I have had problems with disks dieing and always run mirrored pairs of
disks from different manufacturers (in the hope that they might
fail on different days :-).
