Anyone using forensic software can dump an image of your entire drive including all partitions, byte for byte copy. Just because you got away with being careless once doesn't mean this will work every time. If you don't want your files to be copied in encrypted or plain unencrypted form, don't bring them with you. You're better off re-downloading them over the web at that point.

Unless they disassemble this drive, a forensic dump will only show the open partition.
