Hi,
I'm currently experiencing (I think) some hardware issues. My machine freezes and is fine after a reboot. Since everything is frozen the only error messages I get are whats on screen when the machine dies (there is nothing in the logs.)
At first I thought it was the SSD, but SMART statistics look fine.

Since I thought it could be the sata cable I replaced the sata cable and used a different connection on the motherboard. But the problem only seems to be getting worse. At first the machine only froze once a week, now I'm down to daily issues. These are the error messages from two different occasions:

The specs of my software and machine
Software version:
OPNsense 22.4.3_1-amd64
FreeBSD 13.0-STABLE
OpenSSL 1.1.1q 5 Jul 2022
Hardware:
Motherboard: Asrock Rack X470D4U
Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 3500X
RAM: Kingston KSM26ED8/16ME
SSD: Intel DC S3520 2,5" 480GB
All suggestions are welcome since I find the issue really hard to troubleshoot.
Looking at the error message "vm_fault pager read error"
It is likely either an issue reading the hard disk or a kernel fault, i would start by eliminating any disk and config issue
Make sure you have a backup of your config
Did you install this with zfs_enable=YES ?
if so then test it with zfs_enable="NO" by editing /etc/rc.conf and reboot
Hope this helps
Thanks for the suggestion. I installed with UFS. After talking to some friends I reinstalled with ZFS and replaced the UPS. Lets see if it was a power issue. If that does not work I'll check the power supply.
Switching to ZFS did not help and the power supply seems fine when I monitor voltage levels. I ended up swapping the SSD, which up until now has worked! :) Hopefully that was the issue.
