An inflated balloon bursts if it is pressed hard because the molecules inside the balloon squeeze when it is pressed hard and air exerts pressure so the balloon bursts and let the air molecules escape from the balloon.

Why is it the balloon will not explode when you put it on the many pins?

It takes a certain amount of force to push a pin into a balloon to pop it. When you put the balloon on the pins the weight of the balloon is creating the force pushing on it. When there are many pins this force is shared by the many pins. If the weight of the balloon were 20 milligrams and there were 20 pins, each pin would only be pushing against the balloon with a force of 1 milligram. If it takes 5 milligrams pushing a pin into a balloon to pop it no one pin is pushing that hard. On the other hand if it were resting on three or fewer pins it would pop. [NOTE: I have no idea how much balloons weigh nor how many milligrams of force pressing a pin into a balloon is required to burst it. The numbers given are for illustrative purposes only. ]

How strong is a water balloon?

I am assuming you mean how much force is required to break the water balloon on impact. Cannot be answered - it would depend on too many factors, such as how much water is in the balloon (more water would cause it to pop more easily, less water and you could be slamming that thing against a brick wall and it won't break). It would also depend on the materials used to make the balloon, and how hard you throw it, as to whether it would break on impact.

What does the burst transfer mean on a hard drive?

A hard drive that is Ultra ATA 100 has a burst transfer rate of 100MB per second, in one burst, not all the time. Therefore a burst rate is a one time transfer rate of speed or one session, which is similar to a cable provider claiming 20 megabytes per second, download speeds, when the actual sustainaible rate, is far less.
