Can you put the xbox on top of the shelf so there's open air all the way around it instead of being contained? I haven't had any issues with any 360 unit but I don't keep it in a cabinet.
The black box has been remodeled to avoid problems like that from what I understand, but I would take your next unit and give it open air, or a cabinet like you have with a small fan to push the hot air out so it doesn't accumulate above the unit.

Yeah, when I get this one back I will try to place it in a different spot, but honestly it shouldn't be having an air problem where it is. I mean its open to the front, rear, and 75 percent of the left side is wide open (just the side bar to the TV stand near it) its not like its in a mostly closed space like a normal shelving unit where there is a back on it... (like sitting in an open box) I'm leaning more towards.....dust....

Yeah, the unit I just sent in....is one of the new black ones.

BUT its was one of the first newer models to hit the shelves...maybe they had some older game boards left over

The used one I bought to tide me over is one of the modern warfare editions and has the same date code as my newer model black unit.
