The PS5 Disk and Diskless versions have been in the market for a little over 2 years and problems are starting to arise with consumers that game with their console in the vertical position.  Many repair shops are reporting that the liquid metal that is used for cooling is leaking from its containment and spreading onto the motherboard and later hardens on it when it cools down.  This is leading to electrical shorts that are causing units to fail.  

This problem does not appear to be happening while the console is in the horizontal position.
