My advice: don't take the hard drive with you when you go in for that
MRI or on your visit to a cyclotron.
Seriously: an external hard drive coupled with a robust drive imaging
program such as Acronis True Image is an excellent option. Furthermore,
you are truly unlikely to carry your hard drive near a field strong
enough to erase it.
