Does the human brain have a maximum capacity for storing data?

I think the better question is understanding in what way memories are "stored". Memories are more fluid than bits of data, and to quantify the actual stored information is very complicated business. It also implies to me at least that we understand qualitatively how the brain processes data, which we certainly do not completely. See, for example, the "hemoneural hypothesis" which claims that brain vasculature plays an unappreciated role in information processing.
