As the mind of each person is of a subjective nature we may only theorize about general possibilities. We know that short term memory is limited and can be measured by simple tests. The average person can remember 7 plus or minus 2 "chunks" of data. A chunk is anything that someone can view as a whole. The combination 9-3-2 would be said to have 3 chunks of data while a common acronym such as MTV might be 1 chunk of data. So, if you read out to someone 15 very common acronyms in a specific order, they will probably be able to correctly recall 5-9 of them directly after. Long term memory is commonly believed to have an unlimited capacity for our lifespan, however there is no way to prove this currently.

Data stored in our mind is not calculated in bytes.. It's measured in time. You can effectively store around 30 years of data (1/3rd of the time). I read somewhere that we forget 1/3rd of data effectively.
