Xbox posistion?
 

I don't think keeping your xbox vertical or horizontal have anything to do with RROD. I keep mine horizontal.

:confused:

RROD, sucks but I've been reading and I called MS as well as other people they said there is no wrong or right way to put it, but then again spending 400 bucks for an elite would suck if it gets RROD.

I keep Vertical because it looks better and I feel better airflow... but then again MS says either way works... hmm

I have gone through 2 XBOX's. one was a a RROD and the other kept giving me one red light even when they repaired it so they replaced it. all mine sit vertical. I know what you dont want to do it is move while it is reading a disc or spinning once because apparently that will mess it up some how according to Microsoft. My cuurent one has already given me problems I hate microsoft

i have a 1st gen xbox 360. keep it horizontal, and piled on top of my subwoofer, and there's a whole bunch of clutter around me. only one RROD since i got it. not bad, eh?

granted...any RROD should be ridiculous with new tech like an XBOX 360...bleh.

ODST coming out soon! :excited:

So do you think I should be fine VERT

I have my PS3 sitting horizontal, but that's because I have an intercooler on it.

9 processors get hot, and they need their airflow.

True, how are you banning hope all is well.

I have mine vertical as of now I have the RE5 version Xbox

im on my 3rd 360. never had the RROD in either of the 2 that broke just freezing in games then different color pixelizations but never any red lights on the unit. took it back to gamestop a few years back and they swapped me out a refurbrished one for free. kept that one 9 days and it broke. took it back and they gave me a used one that was traded in and ive had that one ever since


this one has lasted me almost 2 years now ...ive got it horizontal sitting on 4 of those clear raised discs you put under couches so its kind suspended in air about 2 inches. then i got that sitting on top of my home theater receiver.

i got my PS3 horizontal too but its in another room all by itself on a glass shelf

That's a good idea. Seems like it'll yield more ventilation due to suspended in air. :tup:

yeah well when its horizontal the holes on the bottom side on that white area are covered so i just put 4 of those discs kind of toward the middle so those vents would get a little air rather than being flush sitting on something else. i mean i dunno how much it helps but it cant hurt

I think I have the newest one... so it came out 3/13/09 so do you think it should be fine vertical
