Magnetic fields?

Ambby · 11-10-2007, 11:08 AM

Ive had a dell desktop for a while with a nice sound setup,i had some Hard-Drive issues,& i never really figured out what made them start to work poorly,then i just wondered if it had anything to do with my giant bass speaker which sits right next to my comp,could that have anything to do with it?

Magnets can screw a hard-drive up,i just dont know how exactly,just curious.

Thanks

what speaker? brand and model... maybe it's Magnetically shielded, if so the problem is something else...

I keep em a good distance away just in case unless there sheilded. Coincidently enough, my other tower took a $h!t shortly after keeping one of my unsheilded home speakers about a 1 1/2' away from it.
