Hello All,

My BS5 has the same problem.  It works fine for a couple of days and then and solid red light and becomes non responsive.  I presume the system has crashed.  I opened up the BM5 and cleaned up the dust and it would work for a couple of weeks and crash again.  Just wondering if I could preserve it by shutting down the system when not in use and re-boot again when needed? But how to shut it down?

Also if it is the hard dish missing a beat, can I replace it?

Thanks.
