August 28, 2025Aug 28 Hi everyone,first of all, thanks in advance to anyone who can help – I’m absolutely at my wits’ end right now.For several days my Unraid server has been crashing in strange ways:It started with me still being able to access the SMB shares, but none of the Docker containers were reachable, even though they appeared as active in the dashboard.After a reboot everything worked fine again – but only for about 5 minutes, then everything froze and the WebUI became completely unresponsive.I suspected a hardware issue and noticed that one DIMM was flagged as defective on the motherboard. I replaced the RAM with new modules, and for a short while I thought the server was stable again.However, yesterday I suddenly lost my Tailscale VPN connection. The server was still reachable on the LAN and SSH worked, some Docker containers were also still responsive. After another reboot everything worked fine again – but only for ~3 hours, then it froze and became unresponsive once more.This morning, after yet another reboot, the Nvidia driver was suddenly missing, and downloading it again did not work.At this point, the server is extremely unstable and I really don’t know what else to try.I’ve attached the diagnostics and syslog to this post. Any hints or help would be greatly appreciated!Thanks a lot in advance.zentrale-diagnostics-20250828-0808.zip syslog-previous syslog Edited August 28, 2025Aug 28 by Smellz
August 28, 2025Aug 28 Community Expert You are overclocking the RAM, never recommend doing that with a server, set the RAM to JEDEC speeds and retest, if the same and since you have multiple RAM sticks, try using the server with just one pair, if the same try with the other one, that will basically rule out bad RAM.
