is 258gb really that bad?
I’m looking to get a Macbook Air M4 for when I start University in september. I’m doing a humanities subject so I know it’s more than enough. However, on the side I have hobbies such as content creation (shorter style videos not 20 minute YT video essays), art and animation. The only game I really play is roblox. These are things I’ve managed to do for 7 years on iPhones with max 128GB storage and an iPad with max 64GB without running into storage issues. The only new things I plan to do on this mac would be 3D modelling on Blender and learning basic coding.
I get 512gb Is definitely enough that I wouldn’t run into issues, but could I manage with 256?
Anything online is saying it’s manageable for casual student work but anything outside of that would require 512. It kind of reminds me when I wanted an iPad 2 years ago primarily for goodnotes and everyone online said the 10th generation was shit and just a slightly bigger screen to watch shows on and that I should get the air. I ended up getting the 10th anyways cause I didn’t think it was that deep and I’ve managed. So is 256 really as unmanageable as they make it seem? Wasn’t much of a laptop person so I wouldn’t know. Looks like i’m gonna get that anyways but i’d like to hear from people with it
