Thanks for watching, everyone!! This one felt like a return to form and I’m very pleased overall with it. The team killed it! However… it seems I made a mistake about the DNA. God dang it!!!! I always try so hard to make sure my math is correct but I misread the info. It’s 215PB per GRAM of DNA, not per strand. That makes it a LOT less storage than what I wrote out, but still in the Zetabyte range so I feel the point still stands haha.

Hey

I really enjoy these scale videos. I started my lifelong data journey using audio cassette tapes. A C15 cassette holds just under 24 kilobytes per side. That's not a lot. And you had to make a note of where your program started and ended because you had to fast-forward/rewind until you got the tape into the correct position. Compared to this, 5.25 floppy disks seemed like amazing tech from the future.

5:25 I was gonna say "Man, why didn't the airplane honk it's horn to setup the crash like movies usually do?" Can you tell I skipped sleeping last night?

You're totally wrong. 1 kilobyte (KB) is 1000 bytes. You've mistaken it with a kibibyte (KiB) which is actually 1024 bytes. Doesn't matter that 1 byte is 8 bits, if you convert from (kilo)bytes to (mega)bytes, it's multiplication by 1000, not 1024. 1024 base is exclusive to the binary prefixes (kibi, mebi etc.)

Also, when it comes to demonstrations such as this, there will inherently be factual stretches of the truth because at the end of the day, none of this information, accurate or not, integrally matters for the video. It's function is to help people on a conceptual level understand things. Such examples include black holes which have a singularity in the center. A 1 dimensional point of mass spinning in a disc around another point. Yet we describe them as massive objects. Now, we say a black hole is "massive" but that's factually untrue. Their range of effect is massive, but a black hole inherently is not. But watching a video on them will you seldom hear that information. Do you feel you gained something from the video? Evidently not, based on your stance on the matter. Is it enjoyable? /IMO/Yes. So I would say that the video can be a success regardless. Now stop being pedantic and touch some grass.

DNA can store 215 petabytes per *gram*, not per strand. The human body has an average of about 19.39 g of DNA, which works out to 4.17 exabytes of storage per human. It's still a lot of data, but not nearly the 370 billion zetabytes Wren said.

Thanks Gordon!! Your videos in fact helped me learn about cameras back when I got started! I had a Canon T2i and your reviews taught me how to use it.

@@SirWrender that's awesome, you've made my day - no - my week! I love what you guys are doing and have huge respect for your work, so to hear that you've seen and enjoyed some of my videos is enormously flattering, thanks! Crumbs, my T2i (or 550D as we called it!) review was made back in 2010, one of my first to filmed on HDV tape I think. It's a little frightening to consider I was already FOUR years into my KZread career at that point, but still one of the few people making cameras reviews, so it was inevitable people found me! That video is currently at 1 million views - ah the happy days before I had much competition! As a side-note I actually had two careers in mind as a teen, one in photography and the other in VFX! I obsessively read every page of Cinefex from issue 1 and even attempted some bluescreen composites at home with die-cast Star Wars models in the 80s on 35mm film! It all comes full-circle too, as when Cinefex closed its doors, I discovered you guys for my VFX BTS info and binged every react video before getting up-to-date. Keep up the good work and if I'm ever in your neck of the woods I'd love to say hello!

The use of that DOOM music is amazing (yes, that’s what I’m most focused on)

Thank you!

masterpiece of a video, thank you corridor crew and wren!

Whenever another youtuber I'm following cameos into something I'm wathcing, I have a disproportionate amount of fun and pride. It's diffcult to comprehend because I'm just a viewer. I don't even participate in any way. Anyways, I love your content and thank you for doing it so well !

This is perhaps my all time favorite series of informational videos. The way Wren uses his VFX prowess to demonstrate otherwise unfathomable concepts is truly inspired.

I remember my dad coming back from a computer show (when they had those) and he bought a 128mb hard drive and he said “this is the last hard drive i’ll ever need to buy”. LOL

Your poor naive dad lmao. If I ever buy a 2.5 petabyte size server in the next few years, I'm expecting it to be available for a hundred buckaroos in 10-15 years, the way things are going. We'll probably end up with "petabyte" singular SSD-s in that period of time, almost no doubt about it. And then zetabytes the following 10 years. By this point, we're 100% operating on quantum computers so there might even be a massive jump sometime in the next 30 years.

I had nightmares thinking about how I'd ever fill my first 120 MB drive 😂. But then I learned that the bigger the drive, the faster it fills up.

I love how joyful Wren videos are.

Wren pure enthusiasm is so damn infectious. He reminds me of MCA of the beastie boys !

4K blu-rays actually hold between 66 and 100GB depending on the movie. Standard 1080p blu-rays are between 25-50GB. So, you'd only need a stack of 10 4K's to reach a terabyte. Fun fact, if I wanted to store the entire Lord of the Rings 4K extended trilogy on my PC, it'd take up 600GB of space by itself (300GB for the theatrical cuts). You aren't streaming that anytime soon ;)

You're thinking of dual-layer discs, the same way dual-layer dvd's could hold 8GB. They don't count because then you'd have to start explaining layers etc.

@@cenciende9401 Dual-layer makes up a vast majority of blu-rays on the market, UHD blu-rays don't come in single-layer, only dual and triple. When I said "between 25-50GB, that's referring to single vs dual-layer, whereas 66-100GB for UHD is referring to dual vs triple-layer.
