About this tag
Discussions tagged with 'electromagnetic' on WindowsForum.com cover potential interference from unshielded speakers near hard drives, as well as broader topics like electromagnetic damage protection in aircraft and electromagnetic scanning in sci-fi-inspired devices. While the tag appears in threads about hardware safety and futuristic technology, the primary user concern involves magnetic fields from unshielded speakers possibly affecting HDD performance. The content also touches on NASA-funded research for self-healing aircraft skins that guard against electromagnetic damage, and a hobbyist project building a real-world tricorder capable of electromagnetic anomaly detection. These threads reflect interest in electromagnetic effects on computing hardware and emerging tech applications.

Windows 7 Unshielded speakers near the HDD
I have a set of unshielded speakers near the PC case, and one is in front of it, near to the HDD. Is there any issues that might occur with a magnetic field possibly interfering with hard drive? I'm kinda liking the sound with the speakers set up just as they are, so I hope I don't have to move...- trog69

Future planes to get a 'magic safety skin'
Despite the popular perceptions of plane travel, it is a relatively safe way to travel, and the folks over NASA are hoping to make it even safer. They have awarded four different research teams a total of $16.5 million to work on safer and more fuel efficient planes. They may even be quieter...- cybercore
