The antistatic bag helps some on the condensation, but
there is some moisture on the drive.
The drive is junk anyway so I'm not too concerned
with moisture damage.
 hdrives are fairly well sealed to dust
and moisture, so I assume it wouldn't condense inside the drive.
The drives do heat up fairly quickly, I've had to put them back in the
freezer
again to finish copying files.
