I think i remember seeing this question asked, but i can't find the thread sorry peoples.

But i wanna clarify the correct method of shutting off xbox after playing a game that is loaded on the HDD.
Is it safe to simply press the power button while the game is still on? Or should i press eject, wait for evox to load up again and select "Power off xbox"?

Yah, just turn it off. If you want to do it correctly or safest, then do it when it is not loading. It really doesn't matter though.

The correct way to turn off a dreamcast is to pop the lid open and boot to the dash, but that is bull****.

i read that about the dreamcast too,i think sega were worried that their gdroms were going to fly out and hit people if u just turned the unit off and opened it before the disk had stopped LOL
