In 2014-2015, $100 would get you either 3TB of hard drive or 256GB of SSD.
In 2023-2024, $100 would get you 2TB of SSD. (For a few months even 3TB.)
So yeah everyone chose the speed option, but the speed option should have kept growing. Outside of bargain basement models 1-2TB should have become the minimum size.
