None of you guys read the damn thing.
It doesn't matter if it's it's digital or not. The alleged issue isn't the drive.
It's essentially the "conductive thermal grease" that can leak, which can create a mess if the system is vertical.
It's likely extremely rare (not that I'd put it vertical because of the drive + cats + doesn't fit for me vertical).
Yep.
This is from a Yahoo article via PlayStationLifeStyle.net:
"The PS5 console uses a liquid metal cooling system for the APU. In most consoles, the APU and its cooling system will be pressed too tightly together for gravity to be a problem, and most of the 30 million PS5 owners will never have this issue. However, in PS5 consoles where the seal has been damaged, the metal can reportedly become uneven or even spill over time when the console is stored vertically, affecting the efficiency of the cooling system. [...] If the cooling system has been affected, players could get noisy fans and unexpected shutdowns as the console overheats. However, Wololo has compiled reports from several hardware experts that claim the liquid metal can even spill onto other components and can cause short circuits, effectively killing the motherboard."
