I gotta preface these comments with -> I have _NO_ hands-on experience 
with PBs 2400. Zero. Nada. None. Zip.

However the thought occurs that since larger ram modules almost always 
mean higher power consumption _AND_ these 'Books seem to be known for 
rather shaky internal power supply bits, is it possible that adding the 
larger capacity ram module simply overloaded something 
power-supply-related? Something that was perhaps marginal anyway?

In other words, maybe Stefan didn't do a 'baaaad thing' except upgrade, 
but rather the poor old 'Book simply got (over)loaded with the final 
straw(s) which broke its back.

IIRC, he added a new HD at the same time, but since newer HDs usually are 
more frugal with power than older drives, I doubt the new HD would be a 
suspect in this conjectured PS-bits-failure scenario.

just my $.005,

Dan K
