I've been somewhat consistently having issues on my PogoPlug E-02 running Debian 9 (Stretch). I say somewhat because I'm not exactly sure how frequently this happens, but I'd guess once or twice a month, but maybe more.
The issue I'm experience seems to be the system as a whole locking up, freezing, or becoming partially inaccessible. If I'm using a program like forked-daapd to play my music library, I'll lose the ability to connect to the server on my remote app. I notice after a few days of running normally, sometimes the process of connecting to my library from the remote app becomes very slow. If I've recently rebooted that process is usually pretty quick.
If I'm in an SSH session, the session will become unresponsive. Yesterday I was running apt-get install alsa-utils and during the process everything froze. Eventually (like 10 minutes later) my terminal session returned me to root@pogoplug.local, but any additional commands failed to execute.
If I ping my Pogo when it's in this state, I get a response as if everything is normal, but everything on the device seems unusable.
When I check ram usage with free -h or htop I usually have plenty of ram available. On average I'm using around 50-60mb and the E-02 has 256mb with 512mb of swap available. I'm running the same services (plus more) on a Pogoplug Pro with half the ram available and not getting freezes on that device.
Any ideas how I can start troubleshooting this? Logs to check? Thanks for any tips.
