Kernel panics Mac mini 4 Sequoia 15.3

This happens randomly. Primarily overnight. Energy saver is disabled. the screen saver is disabled. External monitor set to sleep internally on the monitor.

Peripherals are HDMI, 2 Thunderbolt 4 hard drives, a USB keyboard and Ethernet to a network. This unit is the main production recorder for a big TV show. Any ideas?

Mac Mini Restarting After Going to Sleep I'm getting a kernel panic after my Mac Mini goes to sleep. It reboots like normal and once I log in I get the pop up "your Mac restarted because of a problem" message. I used ChatGPT to interpret the kernel panic and it had something to do with a timeout of the DisplayPort or something like that. I have my Mac Mini connected to my monitor via HDMI but I do have my PC connected to the same monitor via Display Port but my PC is usually asleep when I'm using my Mac Mini.

Constant crash and restart from kernel panic 2023 Mac Studio - macOS Ventura 13.5.2 No rhyme or reason. The computer constantly just crashes and restarts with the report log below. I don't know what to do or even how to troubleshoot it. The only peripheral is a Logitech MX dongle.

Kernel Panic on shutdown Mac Studio I haven't been able to pin this one down - I get fairly regular crashes on shut down with my Mac Studio (M1 Max, 64GB ram, running 13.0.1). The only external device I use regularly is a Fractal Axe-FX III for audio interface and recording. I have a backup USB hard drive but that is rarely connected.

As a test:

Turn On "Prevent automatic sleeping when display is off"

Turn Off "Wake for network access"

Set "Turn display off when inactive" to 5 or 10 minutes

Disable the displays timer and only allow the display to turn Off using the Mac mini's timer

Do not manually select computer Sleep from the main Apple Drop Down menu

Only Shut Down the Mac mini, when away for a day or more
