My cat tipped over my Xbox and it broke. The disk drive wouldn't work anymore. The hard drive corrupted and wouldn't reformat. The console itself would freeze and produce a grinding sound when turned off.

All of this because it tipped from a vertical position to a horizontal position.

i never did use an xbox vertically , it just fell back at 90 degree and i picked it up , it didnt hit the ground or anything
and theres a sticker that clearly says do not move the xbox while there a disc in it , just wanted to know if damage can be done to xbox by the disc itself
btw , it still runs perfectly . just wanted to know what could happen , the scraches on disc are like paint not deep ones so im guessing theres nothin to worry about
