Well a bit of a follow up I guess:
I had already tried to re-install on the nuc, latest image, two days ago. Using gnome-disks. Booted nicely first time, then hanging again. After booting again from a debian live was showing me 1 bad sector…
Continuing today:
it’s on an msata, and the system is 5-ish years old… Just checking: https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/76977/intel-nuc-kit-d54250wyk.html > launch date: Q4’13 Ok maybe a bit older… still packing more then enough punch for a HA…
Well, a re-seat of the ram and msata never hurt anyone, so that’s what I did first.
Next, time to bootup systemrescuecd, and start testdisk on the drive… That reported that my hard disk was too small… strange I have restored on that same machine before using gnome-disks, and though I know it is not the supported way, this has been running for months on end…
Also got a report of unusual number of reserved sectors on the EFI drive, more detailed testdisk report below.

TestDisk exited normally.
You can let testdisk try and repair, but that was not my intention, I just wanted a report. I’m not aware on how the setup process of HA works internally, but something went wrong…
Next up: RAM test and bios update, in that particular order…
The ram test takes a while: Just under 40 minutes for 1 pass on a single sodimm ddr3-1600 8GB, no errors reported.
Bios was already up to date…
Next up, create new partition table so booting up sysresccd once again this time gparted. This also shows the current partition table has errors and offers to fix it. I’m just creating a new one…
And finally, re-install the image using gnome-disks again. Booting just fine.
To restore the backup, I just untarred the way too large snapshot with media included, deleted the media.tar.gz, removed the media entry from the json file and tarred it all up again. Uploaded the snapshot and it restored without any issue.
With everything up and running > tried to backup the drive using clonezilla: aaaand it fails on the last partition

Ending /usr/sbin/ocs-sr at 2021-01-23 14:16:13 UTC...
Before anyone asks, no the drive was not full, it’s a 2TB external drive, 25GB used
Started both another testdisk, and ran smart test, both passed (with smart reporting 1 re-allocated sector) I have logs of both…
System still boots fine, and works… I am ordering a replacement for the drive
What I’m missing in HA: a smart notifier… that’s really missing imho… everyone with common sense moves away from sd cards, but even ssd’s don’t last forever.
Another thing I would like to have: lvm on the drive. If I have enough space left on the device, I can make an lvm snapshot with OS running, then restore there, or backup the snapshot…
Well I hope if anyone else is having similar issues, this thread can help…
I really tried to make this reply as short as I could, even trimmed it down but it was a lot of work as well
