My ShoWagon installation is coming along nicely -- the windshield is back in the car now, the subwoofers are installed totally stealth, all wiring is in place, all speakers are in place except for the center channel speaker... and thus my question.

I am installing the empeg where the HVAC controls used to be (they, in turn are going where the cupholder/coin tray used to be) and the bottom of the 5" center channel speaker, complete with neodymium magnet, is perhaps half an inch above the top of the empeg.

Is there any likelihood of this magnet erasing or writing random ones and zeroes (or even threes and fours ) to my hard drive? If so, what would I do to shield it?
