      Buongiorno a tutti,
      I have a running incce years, today the network as stopped to work, after a manual power reset everything is restarted again. I have 1 suspect, a possible HDD fail, I'm now running SMART test over it. In case of failure I will replace it, it can be a good idea to use a WD RED for the system? Or use an SSD and an HDD for logs?
      I'm posting also the system.log file in the case that some one can discover something that i haven't noticed!

        Nothing really stands out there (except for you locking yourself out of the GUI/SSH :-)

        You might try leaving a device connected to the console to see if anything is captured there when it fails. If it is the HDD, then the problem wouldn't/couldn't be logged to the disk.

          @jimp ahahahaha, yes, I’ve noticed it, some keyboard related problem. I’ll keep the HDD under control... About the installation? The use if SSD or other think...

            Current SSDs are fine. Much faster, and reliable. It's really up to you.
