I'd be more concerned if the guy didn't have porn.

There can be degrees of separation here depending on what is left at the house and in what state it is left.
If the drive was in a device, folder opened, for all to see and she saw... thats not snooping. For her to unplug it from a TV, move it to a computer, open it up, and sift through the contents... that sounds like snooping to me.
I would not expect my wife to raid my electronics content when I wasn't around, much less a girlfriend.
Ditto. The Mr. only snooped through my stuff one time, many years ago. His nose was all out of joint over what he found, but later got over it and understood why even spouses are entitled to a certain degree of privacy.
He feels it is invasion of privacy regardless of what was on the drive. What do you think? They have been together for only 3 months, but is it ever justified regardless of time in the relationship?
I agree that it was invasion of privacy. There are probably circumstances under which it could be justified, but that's not applicable to this situation.

In my world, there is an expectation of privacy until such time as there is an agreement otherwise.
Just because I have access to something does not give me the privilege to "help myself" to everything in it.
For me, personally, the length of the relationship doesn't have too much to do with it.
IMO , it depends on the level / stage of the relationship .
If you are still somewhat casual and aren't living together. I think its wrong.
but if you are exclusive, are making long term plans, live together or are married, its no big deal.
but still some people are just insecure and have a sickness for being nosy
