HDD is many times fixed. EHD(exterior HDD) Is transportable. Any documents could be stored on the HDD. (except the documents is for a mac and you have residing house windows put in) The HDD isn't comparable to a CD rigidity.. HDD Has metallic plates which save documents.

Are you referring to the magnets in the electric motor? Did you find the magnets inside a metal cylinder? That metal acts like a shield. Magnetism can be blocked.
