I would agree with most people here that say they were proably just afraid of the heat it was giving off rather than them breaking down.

My 40 gig sounds like a jet engine when it starts to get hot (at least I know it has a nice powerful fan), so if the slims do that I can see why people would be wary.

i agree, my 60gb might give enough heat to warm my room to over 90 degrees, but it never had any hardware failure because of the heating.
