My old #n900 booting the mainline kernel on #postmarketOS, installed on a 1TB SD card.When this came out, flash memory was $1620/TB [1], and a 32GB SD card was *huge*. I don't think anyone expected to install a 1TB card in one. A lot can be said for maintaining backwards compatibility!1. https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/historical-cost-of-computer-memory-and-storage

@craftyguy that TB flash price sounds pretty cheap for 20 years ago…

@lazyb0y @craftyguy N900 was released in 2009 and first 1 TB SD Card was releaaaed in 2016. I think OP meant the price only, not that there were 1 TB SD Cards available in 2009.

@Nuuskis @lazyb0y ya the price of flash memory. I have no idea what form 1TB of flash was in during 2009. A 1TB microSD card in 2009 would have been absurdly expensive if it had existed 😅
