It is likely several dozen petabytes (quadrillion bytes, billiard bytes, 1015 bytes)

=========================================================

In 2011 (YouTube's 6th birthday), 2 days worth of video were uploaded every minute.

I have assumed that each year there has been a 100% growth in video upload.

Also, I have assumed that 1 min video has size of 3MB.

With these assumptions, the total data storage at the end of 2011 is coming to around 9 petabytes i.e. 9000 terabytes. This is just an estimate.
