RE: Dish receiver on its side?

Hard drive does not care which way it is mounted. There is also a cooling fan in there. Just make sure that the case is not hot to the touch wherever you are mounting it. Also you should probably favor the side with more empty volume on it as being the "up side". I think this means putting it on its left side if you were facing it. Take a look at the vents and make sure that you leave the warmest parts at the "bottom" so that convection carries the heat "up" off of them.
