8MB is the maximum size possible for full blocks. BCC supports 2-8MB maximums. the 400GB stat is kind of like calculating how much gas you would use in a year assuming 8000RPM 24/7.
Also disk usage arguments still apply to SegWit. For instance: see this 3.7MB block on the test network, containing 468 transactions.

so if we're extrapolating from worst case scenarios, that's 658GB per year!
