Crunching the Numbers. According to Apple, a standard-definition movie averages about 1.5GB in size, so only two such files would fit within the 3.73GB space of a 4GB flash drive, leaving a little over 700MB for other files.
Some broadband providers limit the total amount of data you can download and/or upload, for example, to 150 or 250 gigabytes (GB). In thinking about whether such data limits may affect you, it may be helpful to know that a standard definition movie is typically between 1 to 2 GB, while an HD movie may be 3 to 5 GB.
