this is nothing professional, just my personal experience.
same machine, two sata, one is amd64, the other i386.
while doing portupgrade due to gtk upgrade on amd64, it reboot a few times,
never
finished the job, and i can't say why.
but on i386, portupgrade -fa due to no maintenance for a couple of months,
never reboot
itself, but has some ports failed to upgrade due to various reason, which
can be solved by myself.
