All random data have high entropy, same for encrypted data.

That is exactly what i said.

If random or deleted or fragmented or corrupted files will lead to me being questioned, then every data carrier will lead to a lotof questions.

Sorry. Data structures exists and uniformly random data is rare. Patterns still exists.

And deleted is a bad counter as deleted files won't have a record in the file system.
