   Yeah, but will it protect him from terrorists, like the iPod?

   Er, little nitpick here. Technically, the soldier wasn’t protected from a ‘terrorist’ but rather an ‘insurgent’. It’s quite a big difference. Not only that, but the iPod itself didn’t protect him, his body armour did. It’s very doubtful the iPod would’ve slowed the bullet down by more than a few dozen feet per second.

   Speaking of tough USB drives, you should check out the IronDrive made for military use. [http://www.irondriveusb.com/technical.html] It’s certified for operation in -40 F (-40 C) to +185 F (+85C), Meets or Exceeds MIL STD 810E 9 G’s at three major axis for Shock Nuclear Effects Per MIS – 30225 and has a Mean Time Between Failure of 4.6 million hours.
