The sum of the world’s knowledge is thought to be 250 exabytes.
That’s about 250 billion gigabytes. There are 25 gb in a standard blu-ray disc. So, there are 10 billion discs worth of knowledge in the world.

You’d need about 10 of these crystals to hold the world’s knowledge.

A 2-hour movie in 4K definition is 28GB, so that already overflows BluRay DVD capacity.

Consider how many GB a 3D virtual reality environment will need.
