I stored three hard drives; 2 internal desktop drives, and one external all stuck to each other, each of them wrapped in a plastic bag and all of them together in another bag in my other far away appartement for almost a year now.
I came by topics online about how magnetic fields and magnets could cause damage to hard drives or the data (which is more important), if placed close enough.
But I was terrified when I noticed that hard drives themselves have very powerfull magnets contained within.
I was wondering would this placement of the drives potentially cause any risk on the drives or the data inside??
