I suspect the question had more to do with whether the EMI from a pump withing 3" could create enough flux to either change bits on the media or maybe to somehow impede action of the arm.
AFAIK there is no solution inside a hard drive, just atmosphere - or am I missing something here.

Oh - and I'm pretty sure that the pump should be no problem - the casing of a hard drive should be a pretty good Faraday cage...
