I remember like 8 years ago a friend of mine excitedly bought some outlandishly large for the time 256GB USB 2.0 drives on some sketchy site. or maybe just ebay tbh. They arrived, reported 256G in windows, but failed when you filled them more than a few gigs iirc. It was literally too good to be true, and that wasn't even that long ago. Now that much storage fits on a micro SD and its not even unusual.
My first laptop had 11 GB of hard drive space, and it was upgraded I think
We're in the part of the timeline where a 32 gb microSD card is becoming a suspiciously small amount of storage. "Yeah, I don't think Sandisk even makes those anymore... Hmmm... I'll just go with the free 64 gig one that microcenter is giving away. That's more trustworthy."
I still have a 512MB in a drawer somewhere

I have a 2gb that's a little rubber
It's been through the washer like 20 times and it still works. I must have had it for ten years.
Almost impossible to find distros that actually fit on it but a few have net installers.
