This is true, I was only comparing functional information density (unique functional genome bps), not read/write speeds. I was also taking the information from a genome and then dividing it by the volume of a cell, but there are many instances of the genome in a cell. I didn't count all instances because they aren't unique. There's a lot to unpack with this comparison and my approximation was crude, but the more I've dug into this comparison the more apparent how incredibly efficient life is at managing and processing and storing information. Especially if you also consider the amino acids, proteins, etc as information. No matter how you slice it, life seems orders of magnitude more efficient by every metric. I'd like to think there's a paper somewhere where someone has carefully unpacked this and formally quantified it all.
