It sounds like the most likely possibility to me.
Though I guess you could run the memory test.
Also, if you have a spare disk you could try doing a factory install with just that disk in place.

No. All the settings are on the current disks (as well as the OS partition that the system boots from).
I reloaded the firmware and ran a memory check and a disk check. I had to boot it to the boot menu with no drives, then put the drives in and ran the disk check. When it finished it booted normally.
