I have a device like this and it supports heavy gpu inside my pc. Wery usefull and nicly built thing made from metal. But the consern is it has a magnet on botom side, so it sticks to metal surfece inside the case. Wery usefull again but my hard disk is under that metal surfice. So i wonder can it corupt data or damage hdd itself..?!
I wouldn't expect it to. I think mythbusters did an episode on this, and it took the strength of one of those car lifting magnet cranes to damage an HDD.
So weird, literally just watched this episode last night.
Just a glitch in the matrix
I'd need a banana for scale to see if this is huge or a macro photo of a small thing.
Wait really? I used to work at a place where we cleared out HDDs with a degausser. I'm pretty sure that thing wasn't as strong as a car junkyard magnet.
Degaussers use varying magnetic fields in a specific way, it's not raw field strength doing the erasing.
Thats a releaf 😅
"relief" is how that word is spelled. Like belief.
Ok english is not my main language..
All good, I just wanted you to know how it's spelled. Not angry or upset
It's alright. We all understood what you meant. Don't worry about your spelling, this isn't a test or anything. 🙂
I don't beleave it
Good greaf
