X-rays Vs. Hard Disks, Ram, Motherboard


Recommended Posts

Posted

I am moving to Thailand in a few weeks from now and decided to take along my hard disk drives only, also motherboard, RAM, and leave behind the rest of my pc.

I am worried about the drives and ram or motherboard getting zapped by x-rays at the airports.

Any recommendations please?

When I came to Thailand two years ago, and when I flew to Australia last year, my notebook made many journeys through x-ray machines. I don't know enough to tell you if it has a motherboard, but it surely has a hard disk.

Zero problems. Put them in those blue coloured plastic bags. They are safe but it will make you feel better.

It could... it would definitely make a few folks feel better about their arrival.

Anti-static bags for everything, then good packing for physical shock protection.

X-rays are no problem. My notebook has been through heaven knows how many x-ray machines with no problem at all.

I hope the disks do not have pirated s/w on them, or naughty photos of Thai ladies?

The customs at your desination might want to check!!
