My mate says that the data is stored electronically which means energy/ mass change.

If two men are arguing about something, yes. It matters a lot!

I wouldn't be surprised if that on a quantum level it does. But no way am I anywhere near intelligent enough to discuss quantum mechanics, or physics. Fascinating discussion though.

Nah. Data is written magnetically, merely changing the order of the mass that is already on the drive. When you save a song or movie to your HDD you're just arranging the one's and zero's in a way your computer can view as music or video.

As chris says on a quantum level, maybe (f**k knows). But in real life terms no
