Have tried using the strongest cuboard magnet I can find (In north

hold. Also

The magnet out of a hard drive is flat and very strong.

Really? What kind of hard drive has a big flat magnet inside? That
defies all logic on the principals of how a hard drive works.

ordinary IDE, the magnet is so strong that it is hard to get off a flat
metal surface without tools!!!

Well I guess you learn something new every day. I would think a magnet
anywhere near the metal recording medium where the data lives would wipe
it out.
