I'd doubt with a P4 class Motherboard that would be the case.. I would be
very surprised if the motherboard didn't have overtemp warning built, and
Craig being the diligent IT chappie he is would have noticed the server
happily beeping away to itself!

I'd be checking the memory (memtest86 overnight, as Carl suggests)..

The other thing that is an outside chance is that the two drives don't like
each other...  whip out the CDrom and put the two drives on seperate IDE
channels if they aren't already.

I had a problem with a customers box a wee while ago where a 20G Maxtor and
a 60G WD drive living on the same cable caused segfaults after the server
had been running for 40 minutes or so..  Took ages to find the source of the
trouble, but separating the drives fixed it.

I've also seen CDrom drives interfere with a drive on the same cable...

Cheers, Chris.
