A friend of mine is bringing a hard drive back from Spain to UK for me
to recover data from. She is flying.

Can it pass thru a security 'x-ray' machine without affecting the data?
Can such things be carried as hand luggage?

Advice please.

You should be fine - I get plenty of work in from all over the world,
especially the USA, and have never had a problem.

I imagine that parcel post gets scanned just as vigorously as hand
luggage - perhaps even more.
