Horizontal or Vertical, does it really matter?

I've always had my 360 horizontal, but I'm probably moving it to a place where I wouldn't have as much room so I would make it vertical. About that long myth thats been going around for a while, does having the 360 vertical make it have a greater chance or breaking? Help me out, thanks.

i do believe that it will increase the chance of scratching discs, hence why you see so few Vertical drives on anything. I would warn u of this tho, you say its going into a tighter area, just make sure you still have excellent area around it for airflow, the last thing you need is a overheated system, and the 3Rings of Death. Just something to think about, if they Vert doesnt get you, the overheat might.
