Yes vertical is better. This goes all the way back to the ps1 days when their lasers started acting up. People noticed that if they put their games in and stood their ps1 up sideways it worked better.
Horizontal on a ps2 lets gravity hold the laser down without the extra little bit of adjustment that it may need. One bad thing about vertical though is that with some ps2's you might get scratches on the disc where the laser mechanism hits the disc. So using backups would be a good idea. Also the scratches are never too deep and a little polish should fix them up nicely. Tyler!

Indeed, I've heard vertical is better. Shame though, I'm stuck with my sideways thanks to my HDD....
 Still, no problems running games though!

Why are you stuck Horizontal? I used to have my PS2 vertically with the HDD installed - it never gave me any problems

lol Instead of sticking the HDD into the PS2, It's in the thing under the PS2. And the Vantec part can be taken out. It's a HDD rack, that way I can swap it into my computer quickly, w/out having to take off the Network Adapter.
 Plus it keeps the HDD cooler than leaving it in the PS2.
