Hi Jackson Mbugua1 : Thanks for reaching out to the Sophos community team. Can you please check the syslog.log and dmesg to see there are any indications related to disk corruption or bad blocks on the disk? You may try below command: #cat /log/syslo.log | grep -i " DRDY" OR you may attach syslog.log and dmesg output here as well for reference. Also If possible go for a disktest and memory test (memory test till 1 pass) of the appliance to be sure those components are not responsible for such random freeze issue which you are observing. Please share a support case ID with us, so we may check the progress internally.
