If the issue is repeated but rare system failures on one of a set of similarly configured hosts, I'd RMA the box and get a replacement. End of story.
I'll repeat: this is a house-made system. There's no vendor to RMA to.
I don't know where you are, but in our country we can RMA anything and everything. Apart from CPU's. So, even a cheap desktop mobo could be RMA'd, as long as I can prove to the suppliers it's faulty, and it's within the warrenty period
I responded to Dr. Morbius' suggestion that I "RMA the box". There is vendor to RMA the box to.
If I knew that it was a motherboard problem, I could RMA it. Or disk, or PSU, or network card, or whatever. But, as I've mentioned, there's no indication what causes the system to hang. There is no way at this point to prove that it is a defective motherboard.
