| No, that is not how memory storage works, put as much as you like on there. |

| Yep. It will. The electrons on the file downloaded have very small masses (1/2000th Relative Atomic Mass where Hydrogen = 1). |

| Smiley, that is such a tiny difference in weight, you would need highly accurate apparatus to even be able to detect the change. The weight of 1TB of stored data is roughly equivalent to 10^(-14) (0.00000000000001g) |

| No it will not make it heavier at all, the memory bricks are already in there, it cannot make memory bricks out of nowhere in a magical way. |
