I had seen that "solution" before, but when i followed it up, folks reported that it didn't work. The real issue is that you never know if you actually have a solution because the cause is really unknown, which means you cannot duplicate or force the failure. So you try something and maybe it doesn't happen for a while, but then it reappears. One that worked for me for a while was to use Amphetamine to keep my system from letting any external drives from going to sleep by "tickling" them every few seconds. I thought I had it sorted out when the issued didn't appear for almost three weeks, but then, Boom! Popped up again. So now I'm back to the drawing board, hoping the log files won't get destroyed so I can look into what was going on just before the stop.</p></blockquote><p></p>
