Ars had an article that cited some HPE testing on the international space station that said regular hardware is _probably_ fine up to about 5 years

Definitely not definitive but it's plausible current hardware could survive with minimal modification

hm but "fine" as in probably won't die?

my question was more whether the hardware would need extra redundancy or shielding in order to not have unacceptably high error rates

There's a radiation section in the article, I'll let you draw your own conclusions
