3000 hours is a lot for a 3D printer, especially if you're not printing in PLA OR you are doing lots of filament swaps OR you're experimenting with different nozzles and filaments.

If you load your printer with one 10kg spool of PLA, odds are good you'll go a while without issues.

10 Kg spools is murder on your extruder gears, I would not recommend going above 5.
