Homeassistant random crashes

Hi everyone, wondering if anyone can help - i’ve started getting this error which is crashing my whole homeassitant install.
It sometimes boots, but then this comes up within a few mins and the UI stops responding.

Looks like corrupt storage (SD /SSD) to me.

interesting - its a virtual machine on my computer - stored on the main boot drive of the PC.
Should i create a new virtual drive and reload the exported drive?
