I've been using a 8GB swap partition on my SATA hard drive. Suspecting that swap on the maybe unstable drive or PCIe connection might be the problem, I also tried without it, with same results. With rsync, I have tried with the "-a" and "-a -p" options. Increasing rsync verbosity does not yield anything useful. I am afraid that rsync is not the main problem here, since the crashes also occur when using sftp, sending a tar file over netcat (and writing it to disk) and when creating a tar file on the rockpro64 between two different disks. I also just tested transferring the data onto a 64GB SD card, which also froze the system in a similar manner. The thing that really puzzles me about this is that sending /dev/urandom over netcat does not impact the system at all.
