Get a Raid card and you can. If you’re getting 4 new 2TB drives – you may as well!

I would test in another system, but if it came up good in memtest there’s no reason to think otherwise.
I’ve just taken a more in depth read of your situation. I’d say that you should do a rebuild as Peter suggested. I wouldn’t use softraid, again, as Peter Suggested. However I would opt for creating a Raid 5 system rather than 0 though – it sounds like you have a pretty decent system, why not go the extra mile and get redundancy.
I’ve had similar crashes with certain external hard drive arrays connected when they’ve been sitting idle for a long time. I think sometimes they have problems coming out of sleep mode.

Taking a look at those logs I would say ram problem. A lot of malloc (memory allocation) calls failing. Can you test them?

Sounds like an Interlace issue to me. I’ve had similar things before in Avid, not sure about solution but certainly look into deinterlacing the footage.

Tried “conform to sequence” option?

I’m sorry for not replying again, but I wasn’t notified of your reply.
Yes, exporting DPX files is the best thing to do.
This is the thing, how are you editing the red media in the first place? Are you transcoding using red rushes? And then offlining?
If this is the case, you need to go back to the original media using clip finder and send the cut to the Color. You can then output from Color at the full resolution using all the Color space, as DPX or quicktime or cineon etc.
Let me know if you want more info on this procedure or visit my blog: https://www.filmcutter.blogspot.com

Thank you all for your helpful tips!
I’ve not tried editing from proxies before (always been worried about doing that). In this case, I would still need to transcode from h264 to prores 422 and then create proxies aswell. So I can relink in final cut back to the prores 422 for final output?
