I just sent in my second 360 because it was having freezing problems. My first one got the RROD within a month of getting it when I got it back in January. This one lasted me a little over 8 months. I'm hoping the refurb I get back will work fine.

I know that the 3 year warranty only covers the RROD and my one year warranty will be up in a few months. I know that the RROD is a huge problem, but I'm scared that after my 1 year warranty is over with that my 360 will experience disc read error problems and disc drive problems. I didn't experience this on my fisrt 2 consoles, but I've heard that disc drive problems and DRE's are the new RROD. Is it really that common of a problem? I'm hoping for a console made recently that's built better, but I'm still scared that after this 1 year is up that I will experience something like this that is not a RROD problem that MS won't fix for free.

How common are problems such as these? Obviously if I get the RROD within the 3 years I can of course send it in, but what are the chances I get problems that I was talking about?

Bump. If I get disc drive problems out of the 1 year warranty, can I lie and say I got the RROD and have it fixed for free?
