So it is doable!
So would that put a full brain scan somewhere in the zettabyte range?
Brain is about 1 million mm3, so yeah, 1.4 zettabytes

One minor detail that the brain is not homogenous. I don’t know where the sample came from, but you’d probably get different results from grey vs white matter, or the cerebellum vs cerebrum, etc.
Still going to be a gargantuan amount of data though, no matter how you slice it.
This is also pretty lightly compressed, though. If you’re trying to do mind uploads you can probably shave off orders of magnitude pretty easily, since in silico neurons don’t need any of the functional structures as long as they act the same way.
