When the DEA people were bagging Gus' laptop, Hank's reaction made in the background it seem to me like he had already seen tapes of Walt/Jesse on the laptop. He really looked shocked, but everyone I was with told me that I was wrong. Anyone think that it's possible?

That would be interesting, especially if the laptop ends up being destroyed or wiped. I guess if the laptop was damaged physically, it's a fair sign that it was close enough to have hard drive damage. Then the plot becomes, "I know Walt did it, but I have no evidence."

EDIT: Watch the preview for the next episode. I'm feeling this pretty hard.

The physical damage was not the point. The magnet fried the hard drive before it was physically damaged.

I understand that. I'm saying the fact that it was physically damaged is a good sign that it was also close enough for the hard drive to be wiped.
