Right now I'm writing from the other side of the Atlantic (Denmark
to be more specific). My old, faithful TP750Cs has passed under
countless X-ray machines, and never a problem. In my experience,
nothing seems to happen, but perhaps someone has more data on
repeated X-raying (my "countless" above is certainy more than 50,
within the last 18-20 months)... Does it shorten the HD life, for
example?
