Not that I am aware of. The seagate type heads work very close to the disk and as an experiment a while ago, with an old 3.5" drive with the cover removed, I tried to corrupt the sectors with a magnet near the disk and I had to be on the platter before it would do anything. So I don't think mu metal is needed or used.
