This is almost always a power related problem or drive failure problem, 
not a kernel problem.  The fact that your machine hard locked at the same 
time would make me thing it's your power supply about to go out or that 
you weren't on a battery backup and you got a bad enough brown out to 
cause the machine to loose enough power to lock up and the drive to spin 
down.
