> Exactly right, or rather several drums of farm grade fertiliser, diesel, ball bearings, a stolen truck, and somebody (or two) prepared to do a ram raid. […] Serious question time: Are you honestly unaware of Timothy McVeigh?

Again a great illustration that you have a scale issue in your reasoning, even if you managed to do as much damage as McVeigh you'd be very far from destroying a DC. If you're lucky you'd have 20% of the GPUs being destroyed and only one half of the DC being able to restart working by the next Monday, and if you aren't your trucks blows off outside of the building and only the racks closest to the wall are damaged and the DC doesn't even stop operating on that day.
