Hard drives keep burning up.

I bought this MacBook in 2008 and have replaced several hard drives, because the computer seems to keep burning them up. It's gone through about 3 hard drives. I was wondering if you had heard about problems like this, and what is the problem or if you have any suggestions?

Hi! Is there anything unusual you do with the laptop, i.e. run specific software for long period of time, keep the laptop in a specific type of environment, etc.? When the drives die, what symptoms do they give you? Thanks!

Hi! I am installing with different hard drives.

No, I don't run any software that I would think of as unusual, just listen to music, and iworks, that kind of thing.
