reliable than openssl's prng?

The details depend on the specific hardware, but when for example a resistor blows up it may be that there is no more random input. Afair some years ago one tested some HW generators and experienced at least with one model that many examplars of this model failed right from the beginning. So it is not so simple to make a reliable HW random number generator.
