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..?!

Ok so here is the situacian. I have rx 6800xt merc that definitly needs some kind of support. But down there is place for two hdds. I have one in top slot. So magnet is directly above 😶 thats why im a bit voried.

Here is another picture, but with hdd in botom slot.
