I have absolutely no idea how that number relates to any comparable operation. Can anyone add a banana for scale?

10 minutes of 4k video is ~30GB.

I feel like this is a bad example.

Most people's experience with 4K video is through a streaming service, and 10 minutes of 4K video on a streaming service is more like 1-1.5 GB.

Or a UHD Disc perhaps where 10 minutes is 3.5-7 GB.
