It does. But the MTBF is so high for normal usage, that - barring manufacturing or design defects - you wil not enter that range with dev usage even with windows doing behind the scenes swapping of the processes of a few VM of a single user.

PRO speed is only minimally faster.
But data crunching will often create huge temp tables which are W seen from disk ;-)
