Try downloading the full log zip file immediately after you reboot the NAS.
What apps are running on the NAS?
Do you have antivirus or file search enabled?
Thanks for the rapid response. Current running apps are "Plex media server" and "Tftp server for Readynas" to supporty Raspberry Pi network booting. Antivirus is running and up-to-date but file search is off.
What am I looking for in the log files? There's an awful lot of it?

I'm wondering if the NAS is running out of memory. But there could other relevant errors.
But I agree it can be hard to sift through it all.
Memory issues sort of make sense but the NAS side of things appears to be functioning fine. Do these things have any form of a paging system? Or maybe memory fragmentation issues. The more I think about it, a failure to properly free 'malloc'ed memory could account for it but that's a fault in the OS. That'll be fun to fix.

Until it crashes.
BTW, if you hold down the power button for 5-6 seconds does it forcibly shut down?

Yes (they run Linux, and have a swap partition).
