I was having similar problems with mine just after I got it almost two years ago. I have 120GB model and it was apparently a bad problem with them. I thought it was fixed in the 160s.

With mine, it was an overheating issue, it got insanely hot when running. If I unplugged it and let it get cool to the touch, it would be okay until it heated up again.

They sent a tech out who gave me a new box (still the 120) and it hasn't been a problem since.
