A few decades ago I bought a used IBM as a *nix server, but it would lock up at nearly random intervals like you describe. Tried a different Linux distro... same issues. Tried BSD - same issues!
It wasn't until after I learned of the 1999-2007 capacitor plague that I inspected the motherboard and saw that yes, several of the capacitories were bulging.

I mailed the motherboard to a servicer who replaced all the capacitors for a nominal fee. After that it was a rock solid system. You mention that this is recent hardware, but I would still suggest taking a peek at those caps.
Interesting information, but my response is 'meh'.

I went camping once with my dad and a few of his buddies when it was frigid cold outside. We piled 5 adult bodies into a camper, and they also left a Coleman gas lantern lit inside the camper all night for warmth.
I couldn't sleep for two reasons:
-
One of my dad's buddies had horrible snoring, and
-
I could feel myself choking on the stale air. I ventured outside every so often and would hold the camper door open for a few minutes (or until I would get yelled at). I don't remember 100% but I think I had a persistent headache that night.
I'm still convinced we could have all died.

Is this a typo or are they running on a Pentium 3?
But my boomer aunt told me it means 'Lots Of Love'!
