Backups if done on the correct medias, (CD-R for CD, DVD-R for DVD etc...) will wear your laser NO MORE than the originals will.
If your games are loading slower then it will be a media problem (Not correct type, inferior quality etc...) and the same goes for the noise. Use Ritek quality media (Traxdata, Datasafe etc...) for DVD and the same for the CD. Verbatim are also a very good choice if you can afford them (I have just started to use the Verbatim CD-R and it is quieter than my CD originals). Their DVD-R is very good also.
Standing the console vertically is BETTER for the console as the laser can gain the correct pitch on the disc (it won't too close or too far away) which will also help your loading times. Gravity then can't act on the laser so yes, standing vertically IS better than horizontal. Been a member since February 2002, seen and answered many of these questions before...
Hope this helps...
