Was gonna ask something similar. Wanted to run a "home server" type box that handles pf sense, homeassistant and stuff like that. Is 512gb enough ?

Should be fine. I have a Proxmox server with 512gb boot drive. It's running plex, home assistant, omada controller, Debian LXC, etc.
They do it not because it gets more expensive but because they can get away with it. All they need an artificial difference between the same but slightly different products to charge more, an industry practice called segmentation. In China, you can workaround this by getting your phone soldered a larger memory chip and get even larger memory iphones than what Apple offers. If we could do it in the US, Apple would have to find another way to segment the iphones.
You can run pfsense on a 32gb drive so this would work. Think I have mine running on a 256 and it's been fine for 3 years now.
