Having a lot of photo's (RAW-pictures each 10 MB) I nearly reach 100 GB. So within a few years 256 GB is to little.
What RISC OS applications can sensibly handle RAW images of that size? The answer is none directly, and very painfully indirectly.
There isn't any point in keeping such data on a machine which clearly hasn't got the horsepower to process it. Store and manipulate the RAW images on a modern system with large discs, and convert them in to JPEGs to display on RISC OS. Then you'll only need a fraction of the disc space.
