Which services are you running? The 100 series is a cost effective storage solution and some combinations of services don't work well.
When you encounter the issue can you download the logs using RAIDar 6.0 (if you can't reboot the system and try to download the logs) and send them in?

Appreciate the response. Currently I have: SMB, AFP, Rsync, NFS, UPnP, FTP, http, and https running on my 104. The only app that I have running is Plex. Consistently when I install and run Plex, I run into this issue. If I restart my RN the problem goes away for a few hours, then the managment service shutdown again. To your point on Raidar, I have to use it to restart the system because this issue makes the web interface and power button unusable.
