Default Computer keeps frying hard drives.

I've lost two hard drives in the past month in the same computer.

Once, my power went out. When I turned the computer back on, it wouldn't recognize one of the drives. It's not just data corruption. It's dead.

A few days ago I had to turn the power off to my house (at the circuit breaker). I did shut the computer down first.
When I turned it back on, it couldn't boot. It appears to have physical damage, but I was able to hook it up in another computer and recover all my important files.

So,...what's going on?

Some kind of PSU issue?

Do you need more info? (I'm at work right now).

Thanks.
