Magnets seems like a bad idea in a disk drive, unless you have a biiig
degausser which you can use to degauss almost everything of the drive
afterwards :)

But you have the index hole, just wire up a photo sensor (cut the top
of an old metal case transistor if you don't have anything else at
hand) and count the number of pulses per time unit.
