I just bought a uni MB...I put in 500GB internal HD. Does this void my warranty?

Also, I bought 2 of these....the one w/ the HD replaced,...when I put a cd/dvd in the drive it vibrates the whole laptop.

The other MB is fine....I never put a disc in the one I change prior to changing HD, but I know I didn't do anything wrong, I followed instructions came with the new MB! :)

Nope. Changing the RAM and Hard drive in Plastic and Unibody MacBooks is completely fine. Apple considers those "user-replaceable" parts.

I tend to agree with mathcolo. Changing RAM hasn't prevented any service for me. I don't thing switching hard drives will either.

So, you should be able to call Apple Care and ask them what's going on with your drive.
