A memory issue usually results in the system locking up, not shutting down. But if you have compatible replacement RAM, then you can try it.

There is nothing special about the RAM in a NAS vs. that in a PC. Just open the unit up and see what's currently in it.
My statement was "if you have compatible RAM", as in already own some. I doubt seriously that a RAM replacement will fix your issue, so you're likely just throwing money away by trying if you have to buy it. Had you originally said you had a second power supply and using it changed nothing, I wouldn't have suggested buying yet another, either.
