SQL Server's "Flight Recorder"

SQL Server has a 'black-box' trace, similar to an aircraft flight-recorder. It's an internal trace that has the last 5MB of various trace events and it's dumped to a file when SQL Server crashes. This can be really useful if you're troubleshooting an issue that is causing SQL Server to crash or someone or something is telling SQL Server to shutdown and its unclear who or what is doing it.
