I had an A500 and the 40MB drive was as expensive as the computer.

I remember when me and a friend both had C64s and he got a 20MB HDD for it. He said "bring your floppies over and we'll swap software, I have tons of space now!" Big surprise, I had way more floppies than he had drive space. ๐Ÿ˜† These days I don't mess around, I have around 105TB of storage with room for expansion as drives get cheaper.
