    I’d be thrilled if the SSD I bought ended up being almost 8x larger than advertised! Does beg the question of why you’re buying 250GB SSDs in 2023 but I’m not here to judge.

      Funnily enough, the meme still works. They wanted 0.2 TB, goddammit, not some hugely oversized 1.8 TB hard drive.

      even 32 gigs would be good enough for a cheap laptop running non shit OS unless you want to store any bigger data or play games.

            For me that doesn’t quite work out, because a lot of stuff wants to install itself on the main drive, and refuses to be installed on any other drives. Visual Studio is the best example I can think of. I don’t have the room for multiple installations of it, so I only have the 2022 version installed
