Why does the file size matter then?
7 year old laptop has 512G
Old Optiplex 7050 mini has 512G SSD and 4T HDD
The 21 year old laptop has 120G + additional 80G added in the spare media bay
New laptop has 256 G SSD and 1T HDD.
My getting old Lenovo Tablet has 256G microSD card.

It's not like putting your entire DVD collection on a mini-PC.

I saw a 6T drive for €155 today.

I'd worry a little about file sizes if it was a PW3 or similar era of 4G only storage ereader. My current eink ereaders are 32G and at about 5,000 ebooks there is still 18.3G byte free.
