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.

Based on 2160p movies i've seen around the very largest max out at around 100, and 40 is more common, so this seems wrong.

We're not talking pirated movie here, think Netflix and Youtube.

Netflix and Youtube streams are less GB/hour than a typical movie rip. Roughly 3GB/hour at 720p and 8GB/hour at 4K. A decent-quality pirated 4K movie is more like 20GB/hour. A high-quality rip is 40GB/hour.
