Mine does/did ... (I guess you mean real reboots and not data logger restarts)
I think in my case it was because the database size (plus the content of the \\METEOBRIDGE\data directory) came close to the 971 MB of the internal disk space of my MB Pro. I moved the database to an external USB device and it's sailing in calmer waters now. No more "spontaneous" reboots. As the storage is supposed to be of the SLC type, I use a microSD USB adapter with a 8 GB SLC microSD card.

The alternative would have been either an external USB SSD (with external power supply as the port doesn't provide enough power) or changing the internal USB SLC stick to a bigger version (4 GB). An ATP 4 GB stick is about 135 EUR/145 USD, an 8 GB SLC microSD from WD is about 20 EUR/22 USD. Including the adapter it's 1/4 of the price for double the storage size.
