Hello every one, I am debating about added a 120mm Fan to the front of my case. Currently a very bad 80mm is the only thing that causes air to enter the case.

Now the problem is, the 120mm fan would have to be inside the metal frame at the front of the case, only problem is thats where my 2 harddrives sit. The fan would not be directly touching them, so I dont have to worry about the fans blades hitting the drives, but I was wondering if the fan with its very minute magnetic field, could possibly do any harm to the drives?

Thank you all in advance.

And for those wondering
