Magnetic fields and magnetic storage media do mix, as long as the field isn't really amazingly strong. The field has to be really strong, because it has to exceed the coercivity of the magnetic coating on the storage device. Hard drive platters have a coercivity of a few thousand Oersteds, which means a field of the same number of Gauss is needed to demagnetise them. The ferrite magnet on a computer's PC speaker, assuming it's not shielded, will have a surface field strength of only about a thousand Gauss, so it won't endanger hard drive data even if the drive's right next to it. Even 10,000 Gauss rare earth magnets can't wipe a hard drive if they're not sitting on top of it.

true...but almost all HT or PC subs hv dampeners as its feets...besides unless u hv ur subs sitting right next to an exposed HD...it shouldn't be a problem...the issue of subs vibration and HD pertain to ICE setup where u hv the subs & HD enclosed in the same space...for PC it's virtually a non-issue

there r two version of CM690...one with front panel I/O and another one with top I/O...

where'd u get the dell 2408wfp...from forummer or straight from dell? if from forummer...how did it perform...any prob so far?...thinking of replacing my HP w2207 with the Dell 2408WFP Ultrasharp refurb model that is on offer from several forummer here... ...

my simple setup:




just replace the table top with a bigger dimension...put in a keyboard holder and wire/socket holder underneath...all from ikea... woohoo..no more dust and trash accumulating under the table...easier to vacuum...

true...gonna put one of those cable hide thingy from ikea also later...as for the cable on the side of the table still trying to figure out the route...cable too short from the power point....Cal-Lab lightning protector hv pretty short cable... still trying to figure out how to hide all these darn cables...

spot on...
