I got a late 2009 macbook unibody white. With the original hd the hd seemed to get hot. I wanted faster so I put in a travelstar and its still gets really hot. And Im just surfing and chatting. Its my first mac did I install wrong or is that just the way it is?
 
Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) and the pram. it seems to be running much cooler.
