I've tried using a 4B and gave up with it - unreliable. That was the

check the archives.
Maybe you just have a bad one or it is overheating in its case or
something. I've left a 4B powered up for months without crashing.
Mine doesn't have a load like backuppc - just occasionally playing
videos with Kodi or Plex, but it doesn't crash. The only serious quirk
I've seen is that having the HDMI port active interferes with wifi -
but you'd want to use ethernet for backups anyway.
I'm going to add here that I have seen a few posts (elsewhere) that some
4B w/8Gb RAM had crash issues and a 4B 4Gb running the same program runs
fine. Wondering what model 4B the OP is using? (2Gb, 4Gb, or 8Gb?)
