Motivated by the new possibilities for experiments with ultracold atoms in optical lattices we explore the thermodynamic properties of correlated lattice fermions in the presence of an external spin-dependent random potential. The corresponding Hubbard model with the local on-site spin-dependent disorder is solved within the dynamical mean-field theory. The spin-dependent disorder is found to drive the magnetic polarization of the system when the total number of fermions is fixed. The magnetic response of the system with finite magnetization differs from that of a system with spin-independent disorder. The spin-dependence of the disorder also affects the metal-insulator transition at half filling.
