Hi,

In some article (can't remember where now) I read that it's a bad idea to install hard drives near the PSU since the PSU is like a magnet and will eat my data! Apart from that installing my HDs there seem quite favourable as far as cooling is concerned. So is shoving my HDs next to the PSU a problem or risky? Thanks.
 
I've got a seasonic 600W PSU - you think that's shielded enough? My case does have a case just next to the PSU - the PSU fan would blow onto the side of the HD and one of the exhaust fans are there too. What do you think - given this?
