When blockchain becomes too large, nodes which are running full client will have to extend their hardisk space . If you mean, impact of large blockchain on network then, network synchronization takes lot of time for new node as they have to download whole blockchain locally.
Read moreWhere is data stored in a blockchain?
Blockchain is decentralized and hence there is no central place for it to be stored. That’s why it is stored in computers or systems all across the network . These systems or computers are known as nodes. Each of the nodes has one copy of the blockchain or in other words, the transactions that are done on the network.

Blockchain is stored on all the computers running Bitcoin node . There are thousands of computers running full node. Each of these node record every new transaction in the blockchain. All of these nodes run as backup for the blockchain.

Blockchain is stored on all the computers running Bitcoin node . There are thousands of computers running full node. Each of these node record every new transaction in the blockchain. All of these nodes run as backup for the blockchain.
Read moreWhere is Bitcoin database stored?
Unlike bank transactions, Bitcoin transactions are digitally signed and irreversible, and are stored in a peer-to-peer network of nodes (running Bitcoin Core) using the Bitcoin protocol (Antonopoulos, 2017).
Read moreIs there a database in blockchain?
While blockchains can be considered a database, a database is typically not a blockchain . Databases generally don’t use signed blocks to store the data. The blockchain structure makes it virtually impossible for someone to change the data without breaking the chain.
Read moreHow records are kept in a blockchain database?
Blockchain also uses a distributed record-keeping system called a ledger that keeps track of changes to assets within the chain. Unlike a bank or financial accounting system, the ledger isn’t centralized, but is distributed to all the computers in the chain.
