Storing many units in-ear headphone (IEMS) a few centimeters away from 2.5" HDDs will cause problems in HDD because these headphones have magnets, potentially leading to magnetic degradation of the platters and files? i have kz edc pro, kz edx pro and gk kunten many units

I'm not paranoid, but inside IEMs there are magnets; I don't know if they're neodymium or something else.
 
Are you bumping your post count this way for some reason?
Every now and then, someone pops up and keeps asking about some obscure non-problem, which in itself isn't indicative of what I suggested, but it's usually a staple of such threads that the OP refuses to accept the forumers' replies.
IIRC, the last one was someone repeatedly asking about data retention on backup drives.
Just to humor you in case this is a legitimate concern of yours: there is also a neodymium magnet right inside your hard drive.
