Sorry there are no real alternatives. Kyle is ending an era.

You are much more likely to die in a car anyway.

It definitely could. I really don't think its your ram. But thats hard to diagnose without having a spare.

You could have a bad processor. Hard locks are tough to diagnose without one extra of each item. Hard lock is usually bad component. Memory problems cause reboots, program crashes etc along with the possible hard lock.

Have you done any stability testing with memtest or something processor based?

This will become much more common. Doctors and lawyers don't like paying for expensive IT. They don't see it as an equal to what they do but it's getting very expensive fast.

Cable modems, especially ones you cant buy, are guilty of using non-standard DHCP.

I've used pfSense quite a bit and not had your experience. Are you sure its your router and not your modem? Its intermittent so its going to be hard to test. USG works fine but personally I think Ubiquiti's best days are behind them.

Honestly if it isn't a boot drive or game drive you won't notice the difference. Running apps like office adobe will not show much difference at all or being used as a data store will show no difference for normal users.

Does it turn off? as it no warning and its just off? or do you see any dump screen/black screens?

I doubt you had that many out-of-the-box bad parts. The statistics on that are unreal. However you probably had one part cause others to fail and chain events after.

Make sure you are not in Raid mode. Some laptops will not see a m.2 in raid mode. Secure boot and UEFI is fine.

Just wait until you use the touchpads on Thinkpads though.
