This sounds incorrect, as you can check at page 36 of the e.g. MBP 13" manual that Apple provides users with the instructions on how to replace a hard disk:
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/MacBook_Pro_13inch_Mid2010.pdf

BTW, hard disks are easily replaceable in Apple laptops since the Mac Book Pro "unibody", as the hard disk can be accessed by removing the battery cover.

In the manual you find:

WARNING: Apple recommends that you have an Apple-certified technician install replacement drives and memory. Consult the service and support information that came with your computer for information about how to contact Apple for service. If you attempt to install a replacement drive or memory and damage your equipment,
such damage is not covered by the limited warranty on your computer.



which doesn't sound as a total invalidation of the warranty, but only in case of improper operations.
