Hello i opened my case today and i noticed that both my hard drives material have melted on the sata calbles and on the power cables connected to doscs.Does anybody have an idea why this happened?
 
I suspect a power surge. What power supply do you have? Most likely your power supply does not have very robust over-voltage/over-current protection, or the input voltage from your socket was so great that the current jumped the spark gap between protection components.
