US Customs check External hard disk

score:8

US customs (technically either CBP or ICE) do have the authority to inspect your external hard drive and other electronic devices and there are a few criminal cases based on such searches. But they obviously cannot systematically inspect all devices or HD people carry through the border and would not be primarily looking for illegally downloaded music (if that's what you mean).

Data obtained by the ACLU suggest that such searches remain exceedingly rare. Obviously, none of this positively guarantees that you won't get in trouble but thousands of people do the same everyday.
