What you really need is a hard disk encrypted with many different partitions, e.g. one for programming projects, one for web browsing, one for email and correspondance, one of movies, one for porn, etc. This should be done using encryption software that allows for 100s of partitions, so it would be a lot harder for the police to argue that you're hiding some partitions.

The software should also, when if formats the disk, leave a random area of c.5% of it free, so the police can't count up trhe size of all your partitions and figure out you're hiding something.
