The first hard drive I got had 20MB and it was glorious.

Mine was 500 GB but that was in 2010.

My first was 500MB. I remember Stonekeep seemed enormous at 80MB.

My first computer didn't have a hard drive at all (Apple IIe).

The first one I used was 5MB. The OS on the machine (a CP/M version) didn't know how to handle it, so it was partitioned as lots and lots of floppies. Not very useful.
