Catch fire? It probably won't! But, the key is that it could be working marginally (i.e. hot) and then fail when you aren't watching. When it fails, then your whole computer could fail in a nicely dramatic manner.
Don't get me wrong! The Vantec unit works just fine if you know how to avoid overload (and if you don't get one of those units that failed right out of the box).
