The Plus has an internal voltage setting. On the side of the analog board, the white-carded one standing at the left as you look at it from the front. there are several potentiometers in there for setting screen height, brightness, voltage... the voltage setting has the straight and dashed line symbol of a DC circuit. But, if the drive is external, then this can be a component-getting-overheated-on-the-motherboard/analog-board problem as well. First, I'd wonder about a damaged System Folder on the external. Then I'd reseat all the memory chips. Finally, I'd check my hard disk with Apple's Disk First Aid, or other tester. Then, if that doesn't stop the random restarts, I have a working copy of both the analog board and the motherboard I'll send you at my cost. Get back to me.
