WS-26-400-IDC Stability

Installed one of these at a site about 3 years ago. It worked fine for several months, then started rebooting randomly once a month or so. It's getting more and more frequent.
Installed one at another site. Worked fine for a couple months, then started rebooting the same as the first. Replaced it with another one a couple months ago, and this morning, it looks like it's going to do the same thing.
No, it's not a power issue. Other equipment, including our Calix and Ciena gear are off the same PDUs and are not affected.
Is this an issue with the larger switches or with the IDC power supply?
I've got a spare in stock, but at this point, I'm not even sure if it's worth the effort to keep swapping these things.
If this is an issue with the IDC, should we switch to the WS-26-DC?
If this is an issue with the larger switches, should we switch to a pair of WS-12-DC?
Thanks.
