Okay, let me explain what is that… The red ring of death as it is not as fondly known as refers to the three flashing lights on the front of the Xbox console. These red lights on the front are flashing on and off telling the owner that they have a bad day

Since the launch of the console in 2005 the Xbox 360 has taken a significant amount of heat and tongue lashing in the media, from customers and critics alike. Compared to other systems put out by the competitor Xbox 360 has fallen evidently short. Consumers have complained that the system is unstable, overheats and really is just a manufacturing joke.
Lets look over the causes for the red ring of death:
One of the most commonly discussed problems on forums across the internet is overheating. This problem is not something that you can fix yourself. If your console constantly overheats you will have to send it for repairs (which isnt a big deal if you still have the warranty, if not than here comes the problem) Microsoft has said on their website if you keep the Xbox 360 in a highly ventilated area this may prevent the risk of constantly overheating, blah what suggestion.. The General Processing Unit of the Xbox 360 is also related with the overheating problems.
Also the system shouldnt be moved while it is on. If you make the mistake of moving your system while its on you may chance the disk scratching and the system may freeze up. If you keep it in a horizontal position and keep it in one area while its in operational mode it may help or cause a surcease to your system freezing.
A website that rates product warranties named SquareTrade, put out a report that claimed the 360 has a 16.4 % failure rate. This is higher than any of the Xboxs competitors score which rated in the low 3-5%.
Also according to this report the Red Ring of Death is responsible for sixty percent of all defective 360s. Reportedly the other forty percent of the malfunctions are due to hardware failure.
