Most likely cause of it crashing is hardware, disk or controller.

I'd also check something as simple as the CMOS battery. Linux is very sensitive to the time / date set on the machine. If this changes incorrectly, then some Linux distributions will try FSCK after every reboot.

Random restarts can typically be associated with an overheating CPU, bad RAM, or hard disk errors. Your issue is likely related to physical hardware.
Check your logs and be ready to get your provider on the phone.
Get your backup and restoration plans together ASAP. Notify your customers.
