One insane thing about 4K video is how it fills your HD. I have a 14 TB harddisk, and it's nearly full ... why? Well, my video of the birds in my garden is 209 GB ... meaning I can only take 14 of those videos to fill up my home server...
In comparison, I calculated it... and my one video of the birds in my garden (209 GB) is the same as ... 153,953 floppy disks (3.5", HD)...
Imagine going back in time to the 1990s and telling someone that one video would be more than 150,000 floppy disks ;)
