Magnetic effect on PC

[Arlo]

My sister's PC has the magnetic effects, so my question is, is something that can demagnetized? As in TV there is cathode ray tube.

[.:MUNDITO:.]

In such case, relocating the PC would be better, because the hard disk and such magnetic components can be at risk.

In fact it is very near to the HDD area and if I remove them and put at the bottom, there is power supply etc etc?

PS: I believe those are powerful magnets.

As a rule, its never a good idea to include something that can generate magnetic field (magnets) in a cabinet (case) and also avoid placing near the influence of magnetic field.

I have read the article speaking about the danger of magnets near the HDD; and found that demagnetized for a common maxtor 80GB, that has the strength of some vehicles by a magnet. So with the simple enclosures, the magnetization effect can be avoided.

Eh, eh ... but the "speaker", as you say, have shielded magnets. So that is harmless. Try to keep an HDD for a full day under the magnet of a 20'' woofer powered with sinusoidal signal with a 100-200 Hz. Then see what happens
