Which size hard drive should I buy?

I'm debating between a 256 and a 512 gig hard drive for my next Mac. Which one should I buy?

Always go with the larger size. But it really more depends on how much data you already have. As you saw on my website link earlier, that shows you things to consider. But overall, no way I’d buy a 256 gig hard drive these days. Apple shouldn’t even sell that spec. 512 gigs is barely enough for some people. But if this is a person’s first “college” computer then it’s usually fine.

I've written about how to consider space when buying a new computer here.
