I would suspect that this might be a power-issue, especially as you said that HDD's gone offline. Observe your +12V and +5V voltages from PSU via lm_sensors or in BIOS to if your values are OK. Keyboards and mice are powered w. +5V (both PS/2 and USB) so that might be the voltage to focus on. Regarding the HDD: you might find a spin-up delay setting in SCSI-BIOS, to prevent all devices being powered-up all at the same time.
