[lug] SD write timeouts, drive appears to be fine

[mad.scientist.at.large at tutanota.com]

I've seen ram test bad due to a power supply starting to go out.  It would be well worth trying another power supply if you can.  Note the power supply in question looked fine to a volt meter.   Didn't find out till i'd replaced ram and mother board and still had the same issue.

If the RAM is damaged, and the CPU has been on for several years, then you might find it is a case of new thermal compound on the CPU to reduce temperature of the RAM...heat guilt by proximity.
