Why not put critical or proprietary files on a flash key? I carry a 4G

Recent reports said you were allowed to carry passport, medicines
required for the trip, and one or two other items that did not include
any metallic objects as I recall.
And, to defeat the nosey customs folk who now want to login and rummage
around your files when you enter the US, create a dummy
account and give them that login when they insist on inspecting your
laptop for "child porn". I've got nothing to hide, but I don't want some
ham handed idiot accidently deleting stuff either...
I wonder what they are trained to look for.
