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 have one in my case, attached to the metal part covering the PSU in a CM silencio case. I have a single 2.5" hdd in the same case, without any issues.

      Yea but the problem is my hard disk is in its bracket made from metal and this support gadget is directly on that metal…

        I wouldn’t worry. As others has said in this thread; a way more powerful magnet is present inside the HDD. Also fans produce magentic fields to a small degree. Then again, I don’t store anything important on the magnetic drive in my PC, so I’m not risking anything. 🤷‍♂️
