<< dammit i think i'm being around computers a little too much, now i'm even thinking "how much data would our brains be able to hold...will be ever be able to run out of space to remember things?... >>
It is clear that our brains can hold only a finite amount of information, because they have only a finite number of neurons.
The difference in this case is that when a computer runs out of space, it simply cannot hold any more data.
If a human was to start to "run out" of space it would be different. The brain has a property known as "graceful degradation." If you tried to continue cramming more stuff in, you would still be able to fit it, but everything else would start to become less vivid. In other words, you wouldnt lose any particular pieces of information, but all the information would become less stable.
Consider what happens if you randomly lesion portions of a brain and hard drive. Amazingly, a brain can continue to function even if large sections of neurons are missing. Although performance may be lessened, there is no real emergency.
On the other hand, if you randomly removed chunks of your hard disk, you would be in for a surprise. If you happened to corrupt even a few bits of data in the right place, it is possible that nothing would function.
