Hi everyone, I have an issue with my gen 1 Apollo BTC. The node cannot seem to sync past ~459,000 blocks... the node stops (crashes?), and when I restart it it will pick up at around block ~458,000 and die again a short time later. Note that because this was a Gen1 device, I did swap out the M.1 for a 1T device at some point in the past. This node has NEVER synced through to completion. I've been mining on it successfully since I got it, as one of the early adopters from Futurebit.

What I've tried so far:
1. Reformatting the flash
2. Stopping the miner to give more breathing room (temperature) to the node
3. Restarting the node when it stalls

Nothing has worked so far. Please pardon me if this has already been discussed in this thread, but I didn't find it when searching this site nor have I gone through all 100+ pages to review all of the posts.

Any help is appreciated!
