Right, but on a laptop increasing either is often hard.
Sure, the RAM reduce work you're doing is appreciated - of course I'd rather have the blockchain on disk than in RAM. But not everyone has 1TB of anything. Fortunately 128GB will, I hope, be enough in the short term.

I don't think that argument holds up with modern laptops. Most of them have "hotswap" ports, where you just slide a HDD in. You can alternately simply connect an external HDD either via USB, or maybe even wirelessly via BT (not sure if those exist, yet).
