Anyone without enough space for a calibre library either has more books than than they can ever read, or only giant comics or a basic Chrome book, or a 25 year old laptop that can't take a larger disk or something? Actual reflowable ebooks take a lot less space than one CD album as MP3s.

Even my 2002 laptop is 120 G byte. Still worked last I checked, but backlight getting uneven and only 32 biat XP. But I see some Chrome books have only 128 G SSD.
My 2016 laptop is 512 G, upgraded to 1T (copied existing partition to drive in USB case, expanded & swapped.
My 2020 laptop is 256 G SSD plus 2T HDD and cost less.
