Interesting question, and of course it cannot be answered.
Sheldrake believes memory is not really stored in the brain, it is stored outside the body. When you start losing memory, it is because your brain loses access to the outside memories.
It sort of works for me.
I don't think there is a practical limit of how much memory you can store in your brain. And I think it is because you don't store it there.
If you did, there would be an answer to your question.
Anyway, assuming Rupert is wrong, The brain is not a single processor. It is millions of processors sifting through that data. So, it might really not be a "one piece of data per cell" thing anyway.
It is the connections that make it happen, rather than a piece of data.

The possible brain capacity is up to 10 terabytes, but the average brain capacity is 3 terabytes, or about 3000 gigabytes. The EXACT NUMBER, according to the figure of exactly 3 terabytes, is 3072 gigabytes, since 1024 gigabytes make a terabyte.
Summary:
Max- 10,024
Min- 1,024
Average- 3,072
Hope that helped.

Our brain works in a different way to computers, somewhat. We have a capacity for more than Gigabites, maybe ten thousand times more, but we have only about 12Mb's of RAM and about 100GB's of information in the forefront of our minds.
Seems our minds are alike. Great minds think alike, eh?

What is the next question, what is the bus speed of the spinal cord?
Trying to think of the brain in machine terms is really freaking.
Please don't reduce your perception of life to this utilitarian crap!
