Offsite backup. However it ran into a security problem.
You could say, he was caught flashing.
"Officer, I am telling you those are my ABS! I've just been hitting the gym a lot. Hey, don't lift up my shirt."

Actually he didn't get arrested because of the SSDs, what got him in trouble was 420 TB of Winnie the pooh pictures.
Of which 96.7% are rule 34 artistic renderings.

Would it really be worth it smuggling the cards alone that way?
