A hard drive is the same physical size if it has 1 Tb to 5 Tb, same with memory sticks, usb drives, SD cards. It would seem logical that memory/storage “modules” hold a specific amount of data, and you just need more of them to store more data.
In: Technology
They’re standardies sizes, especially for hard drives and SSDs, so even if you could fit the same amiunt of storage in less space, manufacturers choose to use standardised 2.5″ or 3.5″ inch form factors to ensure they fit in every case.
Same thing for SD cards, they need to be able to actually fit in the card reader so manufacturers can’t just go making their own sizes.
