Just bought a danner mag drive model 2. This thing is huge! I didn't think it would be this big. Anyway I made a temporary closed loop so I could run in next to my monitor. I usualy have my PC about 11" from my monitor. I moved my case over placed the water pump where my pc would be and turned it on. The first thing that happens it my monitor goes nuts. Like it was degaussed but a little milder. I moved the pump farther and farther away until it went away. I eventualy moved the pump 3 feet way! Now if I were to mount this in my PC won't it do damage to my hdds. I put a floppy next to the thing for about an hour and the data was OK, but it scares me that I have to move it that far away from my monitor. How close can I mount a Ehiem pump? I think I'm gonna return this pump. It's loud, bulky, and the fitting on the pump are too big. The thread on this thing is OD 3/4" ID 1/2. I would use 1/2 stuff but I already have a radiator that is used for 3/8 ID hoses.
