Hello everyone

I will be moving to Qatar in a few months and i would like to ask two questions.I am in the process of putting all my movies and TV series onto an external hard drive to take with me. There is a big collection of everything from PG, 15 and 18 certificate

question 1- will i have any issues with customs bringing my external hard drive with these movies/TV series into the country?

and

question 2- will my laptop (taken as hand luggage) likely be examined as I have plenty of films/TV shows on this too?

many thanks for any advice
