I had lots of stability issues with mine on Linux kernel 4.15 which I eventually tracked down to the X399 motherboard M2 controller, not the CPU or ram as I had feared. TRIM on my M2 drive had somehow gotten enabled and was causing intermittent crashes everytime it ran as a cron job.

Which SSD was that?

It sounds like your issue was a SSD firmware bug that would have been a problem on any CPU+motherboard platform. It also sounds like your software had really unusual and probably stupid defaults.
