Default Hardiboard -- how hardy?

We purchased this home about two years ago. It has a brick front and the
rest is hardiboard. I've thought about affixing a couple of garden hose
reels to the walls in the back and side yards. However, I'm concerned that I
might damage the hardiboard. Is this stuff brittle so that I might risk
cracking it just by driving a couple of nails (or screws) into it? Any
insight is appreciated. Thanks!
