Overview: In terms of size and performance, there aren't too many features differentiating the S and E models. The big change really comes down to the removal of the USB and optical-audio out ports.

Bottom Line: If reliability is really your only concern, then grab an Xbox 360 Elite console with a Jasper motherboard.
