Default Harddisk Density vs Data Retention Time ???

Question:

Does the Data Retention Time of a magnetic harddisk decrease as it's magnetic density increases ?!?

My hypothesis would be: the higher the density, the smaller the magnets, the weaker the magnetic field thus faster data loss ?!?

Thoughts ?
