Need body armor? Try Maxtor.

Storage solution companies make the one of the toughest metal armors around. Just look at this Maxtor HDD which was shot by a .45 caliber Automatic Colt Pistol and .38 Special Full Metal Jacket.

Maxtor HDD

All 5 shots hit the hard drive but not a single bullet got past through.

Now, that’s tough. So there’s still some good use in all those crashed HDD hanging around somewhere. :D

Wow! Lufet! Di ba, tinatapon na lang yang mga hard disks na sira na? Mukhang pwedeng makabili in bulk and make a bullet proof house :)

According to protocol, Tonya asked the man for the hospital-issued identification band which is used to identify each
baby’s parents. Her husband was far away with the builders in a valley of a rich country. Others choose to cap their high school years by matriculating into a college with a solid nursing program.
