Keep losing connection to everything (SOLVED)

[nublu]

I am new to unraid and this is my first week using it but I keep running into an issue where everything stops working. It's like unraid shut down but my physical machine is still on. I can't access dashboard, can't access any docker containers, can't even SSH into it. It's completely random (this last one was about 3 hours online and it happened again) and I don't know what is causing it. Any advice?

Without knowing anything about your situation anything someone says is an absolute shot in the dark but to start I'd say make sure you're using USB2 and not USB3

I was running OMV without any of the unresponsive issues, I didn't like how snapraid worked. I am using USB3 drive so I will try a USB2 drive if that will help, or is a USB3 drive fine just use a USB2 port? I'll update if it works or not. Also thank you for the link, I will read it.

I swapped the usb flash drive with a 2.0 and I also removed my SATA card (drives would vanish from unraid). So far I have not had anymore unresponsive issues. Not sure which one was the actual cause of it but it's working now.

Thank you Dissones4U for the advice.

Nevermind, It worked for 2 days and now everything went unresponsive again. Not even sure how to check what is causing it because I can't do anything without rebooting the machine.

I changed ram in bios back to the auto settings and so far I've been 6 days uptime so it looks like I have fixed it. It was hardware after all.
