One squishes the box the long way, possibly causing premature CDI failure (usually around the 20k mark). The second one lays them in sideways to reduce the squish. I’ll post pics of both so you can see what I’m talking about. But most of us had CDI failure near 20k or so. We learned a lot of the quirks, and all the good stuff together over these last 20 years.<br class=""><div class="">
