Here are a few FAQ�s about the Magneat�

1. Can the Magneat� harm my iPod?

Magnets are truly good friends with Ipod Nano and Shuffle, and all other SSD Flash drive based devices. Any magnet should be stored apart from hard drives as they may damage them. Do not attach a Magneat� to your media player without ensuring yourself that it is not a hard drive based player.

2. Do the magnets have any effect on Hard Drives?

Magnets may damage hard drives and should therefor be stored separately.

3. What about ICD, Pacemakers and small children?

Magneat� should not be used with magnetic metal implants (pacemakers, ICD).

5. Are there other things I should know about magnets?

Magnets are all around us, from refrigerators to locks on phone pouches, even Hard Drives have magnets. Nevertheless, certain things do not go well with magnets, like the magnetic strip on credit and debit cards and old cassettes. Most cards today already have a "computer" chip that is not affected by magnets, but better safe than sorry, right.

6. Can the Magneat� erase data on my Hard Drive?

Myths busted! Magnets zap your data? See what this article from PC World reveals...

Fortunately, most modern storage devices, such as SD and CompactFlash memory cards, are immune to magnetic fields. "There's nothing magnetic in flash memory, so [a magnet] won't do anything," says Bill Frank, executive director of the CompactFlash Association. "A magnet powerful enough to disturb the electrons in flash would be powerful enough to suck the iron out of your blood cells," says Frank.

The same goes for hard drives. The only magnets powerful enough to scrub data from a drive platter are laboratory degaussers or those used by government agencies to wipe bits off media. "In the real world, people are not losing data from magnets," says Bill Rudock, a tech-support engineer with hard-drive maker Seagate. "In every disk," notes Rudock, "there's one heck of a magnet that swings the head."

Want to erase data from a hard drive you plan to toss? Don't bother with a magnet. Overwrite the data that is stored on the media instead. For flash, fill up the drive with anything, like pictures of your beloved dachshund. Unlike with magnetic media, from which experts can usually recover at least some overwritten data, once new data is written to flash media, the old data is gone forever. To overwrite the contents of a hard drive, try Eraser from Heidi Computers.
