You are ill-informed, duke. SSDs (solid-state drives) are insensitive to magnetism but provide a less dynamic quality of sound to their magnetically-sensitive, rotating-drive cousins. That's one reason why there will likely long be third party vendors of external rotating drives now that laptop manufacturers like Apply have standardized on internal SSDs.
Follow Ups:
I was, as ever, being facetious in pointing out that hard-drive manufacturers probably do understand the effect of magnetism on their product because you can't make a hard drive without it.
To paraphrase F.E. Smith, a much-trolling duke is like an ill-tuned cymbol...

Not trolling, just poking fun at your choice of words. I understand your viewpoint. I don't agree but there is no point me disagreeing. I found the notion of an HDD without magnetic materials amusing as it wouldn't store any data. A bit like a brick :)

Which is not to be confused with a cymbal. Wymbourne wasn't trolling, he was joking.
Well, that's how I took it.
