Tell us more about the hardware per the forum guidelines https://www.ixsystems.com/community/threads/forum-guidelines.45124/

Any chance this is a VM?

Which version of FreeNAS, and have you tried more than one?

 

[TKDubsta]

FreeNAS-11.2-U4.1

persists on other versions u4.1, u4

stated incorrect cpu before, apologies
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5620 @ 2.40GHz (16 cores)

Well, I think if I were you I would try an earlier version also as a test. 11.2 versions seem to have given a lot of issues for some. Version 11.1-U6 had a relatively long run - it's found here https://download.freenas.org/11/11.1-U6/x64/

There is a similar error report on the bug reporting/tracking system, but not associated with a crash, at https://jira.ixsystems.com/browse/NAS-101495, ticket marked as closed. Suggests to me that you should make a bug report. If it were me I would try the 11.1 version anyway to provide more context to the devs.
