I know that Sata DVD drives have magnets and a 29" CRT TV has magnets, if I store HDDs next to 3 Sata DVD drives and next to a 29" CRT TV all these magnets on the drives and TV will affect the hard drives ( HDD) causing file loss and corruption and badblocks?

totally, everyone knows 32" or larger CRT's cause hard drives to have bad blocks, 29" CRT's are just too small.

IMO this is bullshit. if something affects a HDD magnetically, it won't have bad blocks. It would have severe servo damage, ergo you cannot access data at all.

ps: i never tried hdds in large TV sets, but i would never attach any storage containing critical (or important) data to such thing.

go to Bing, down the bottom and ask your questions there. Everyone knows the internet is 100% true, and AI is 110%.

The best place to store them is inside some kind of speakers, the ones with 3k Watts or similar.
We all know that the magnet field protect the earth from the solar rays, so a speaker magnet field will protect your HDD.
