This is why answering the question, “How many films can I fit on my USB Stick?” or “How many songs can I fit on my USB stick?” is so difficult and a search online will bring back a wide range of answers. I searched for the amount of video data that can be saved on a 4GB USB Stick, one of our best selling capacity sizes of promotional USB sticks. The answers I got back ranged from 1.5 hours to 9 hours!

We decided the best way to explain the possibilities is to show a breakdown in terms of quality of film.

So a 4GB USB Stick will hold approximately 3.8GB of data as the other 0.2GB is needed to store the firmware needed for the operations to run.

Low Resolution

If we look at your average ripped .avi or .mpeg  film, which is approximately 700mb for a 90min feature-length film, your 4GB stick would hold approximately 5 full movies.

High Resolution

If you were downloading SD films from iTunes, you would fit 2.5 movies on a 4GB USB Stick.

Looking at other multimedia, you would be able to fit approximately 900 songs or 1900 photographs which is pretty impressive going for a promotional memory stick with only a small to medium sized memory capacity.

The short answer is, a lot! The longer answer is that it depends on which capacity you choose. We currently offer 6 different capacity options to suit all needs: 2GB, 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB and 64GB. The higher the capacity the more data it can store.

Below is a simple infographic giving an indication of how many photos, songs and movies each capacity can store.

As you can see, the 2GB option is sufficient for a light to moderate user. At the other end of the scale, the 64GB is perfect for someone looking to store a huge library of images, music and video files on their portable USB Flash Drive.

Our advice is to always buy one size larger than what you think you’ll need. As with many things in life, you’ll usually grow into it! Plus, the lucky recipients of your customised USB Flash Drives will get the benefit of the drives for longer and will see your logo or other branding every time they use them.

Memory cards and storage devices come in many sizes, just as grocery store bags come in various sizes for transporting customers' food, and each user will choose which size to purchase. Each user will consider various criteria while making this decision, including the size of the videos they intend to save on the SD card.

How much video can 64GB hold?

Based on the normal video resolution of 4k at 60fps, a 64GB storage device can keep more than 1 hour and 20 minutes of video time.

A 64GB storage device can hold more than 1 hour and 37 minutes of video at a resolution of 2.7k at 120fps. On a 64GB memory card, recording at a resolution of 1080p at 60fps allows for around 5 hours of video time.

How much video can 128GB hold?

A 128GB memory card may carry about 75 or 76 videos if each film is only 3 minutes long.

The data rate of movies is generally influenced by the format and codec of the videos. When this happens, the time it takes for a memory card of that capacity to fill up can be affected. A normal 128GB memory card should be able to hold up to 24 hours of video at 1080p HD. That data rate must be 8.85MB/s for this to happen.

A normal 128GB memory card should be able to hold up to 24 hours of footage at 1080p at 4k resolution. That data rate must be 8.85MB/s for this to happen. A standard 128GB memory card can hold up to 48 hours of film at 720p at 4k resolution. A data rate of roughly 4.42MB/s is also required.
