Just got my Elite, one question...

What way should I set up my console?

This?

Or like this?

Which has the better airflow? Which position will prevent RROD?

SIDE WAYS so both of the vents face out. its what your suposed to do... people just put it straight because it looks better.

I have my elite from about a month after they made um, had it laid down and still working great. (Expect for jet airplane noises emiting everytime I play online, but I got used to it.)

mine is vertical and have no problems, saves roomraylewisnfl52

I've always had mine horizontal. I bought an Elite last year and know it will never pack up on me unlike my 4 Pro consoles before it.

its quieter horizontal, and before i had mine vertical and it died, so keep it sideways

Horizontal, a horizontal 360 gets better air flow and can't fall over D:

Horizontal for sure, better airflow, discs stay in place better(i hate putting them in a vertical console, cuz they always fall a bit and seem like they will scratch(just me i guess)), and there isnt the chance that it will get knocked over and broken.

Either ways have no problem..and u will seegripper pads on both the sides..either ways works as the way u like it ;) ...

i have kept it horizontal cozits easy for me to insert the disc and saves a lot of room for me :)
