I dont have specific experience with those parts, but from a trouble shooting perspective it sounds like you've swapped hard drives and not found an issue... but what about RAM? May as well try the Gskill in your i5 and the Crucial in your new i3? If the i3 is still problematic i think youve proven enough to get it returned (2 different SSD and 2 different RAM all proven to work in another NUC that arent working in this one)
