End of a dream, my Sam460ex is K.O.

Yes, after of stopped one year yesterday I have free time and I tryed to discover the problem and it is very big hardware problems with some chip or other electronic component these are:
1. When I connect a USB drive the Sam ports does a full reboot and the other problem even I connect the USB drive back and the result the same problem full reboot I tested with other USB drive this hadn't problem in the front and back USB ports.
2. When the Sam has heat (the box has a cooler fan that I added) sound a click and the Sam is freezes I reboot and again when the click sound appear the Sam again freezes, I did several test no cover, off several minutes but nothing the freeze is present.

Conclusion: The Sam460ex is K.O. and I'll no buy other ACube product in my life, now I try to think in other board for the case that I bough them.

@Templario

Before come to any conclusion you may send your 460 to ACube, maybe they can repair it (if really broken)

@samo79
Thanks Samo, but I no want spend more money and time in this.

@Templario

If computer reboot because you have connected more to it, it likely that it's too little power.
If the computer gets hot, and crashes, then there is a fan problem.

Two issues that should be easy to fix.

That is good advice. I suggest checking the PSU used by the Sam460 (preferably try replacing it, maybe temporarily using PSU from a PC).

It might be a heatsink problem. For example if the thermal paste attaching the heatsink to the CPU is poor, then it may not cool properly. I suggest getting someone experienced to remove the heatsink, clean the old thermal paste off it, and then re-attach heatsink using new thermal paste (arctic silver, etc).

Or it could also indicate a PSU problem - the PSU might be close to failing, and the heat pushes it over the edge. So again trying a different PSU is well worth it.

I would not immediately blame ACube. Most people have no problems with their ACube machines, and even if you do you are probably just unlucky (it is normal for a few percentage of machines to fail early - that is why we have 1 or 2 year warranties).

@Templario

I can always buy your broken board, if you don't want it no more.

@ChrisHQuote:
All ACube products have 2 years warranty.

@Antique
I have it of memory.... no buy more hardware like that.
