For MySQL Cluster, you need to have that much physical memory. Swap doesn't count (the last thing you want is nodes frantically swapping and missing heartbeats).

BLOBS are stored in different ways for different storage engines. For cluster, some of the blob is stored in the row and additional space is allocated in 2kb chunks. The manual has a section on storage requirements where this is detailed.
