Issue Description: I have been having this issue with my raspberry pi running dietPi where it seems to lock up and I cannot SSH / access any of the services on it. The interesting part is that the interface seems to be up and I can still ping it on the local network but shows no video output. usually I get about 3-6 days before the issue appears again.
I am not really sure where to start to diagnose this issue. Any help would be appreciated!
Things Tried:
Reduced operating temp by getting a fan. I want to say this improved the length in between this issue appearing but don’t really have any hard evidence.
uninstalled unused services
Limited active torrents in QbitTorrent
EDIT: Small thing to mention is that the CPU load is usually really high - like not uncommon for the load to be between 8-10 but I have seen it as high as 24.
Temporary fix:
Power cycle - everything comes up again in less than a minute.
Raspberry Pi 3B v2
OS: DietPi
Services:

Radarr
Sonarr

Not sure if the rpi3 can use the 64bit version, or if it’s possible for it use an SSD like the the 4 can?
Have had this issue myself asking with other DD card related issues.
I can’t understand why the pi foundation persist with using SD as the only physically practical storage option.
They’re looking post the point of needing a way to snap on reliable EMMC storage, as a default, in a way that doesn’t leave a cable or something permanently plugged into a USB port.
Sure, USB is a fine option, but I hate that it’s only an option and not a designed default.
Most of us only need 8GB or so for the OS, 8GB or good quality durable EMMC should hardly cost anything.
Other tiny computers and even economy notebooks and Chromebooks already use this.
