2.5 HDDs are totally a thing, just not really used or worth it anymore. They have been in laptops since before the rise of SSDs. I still have a few 250gb 2.5 spinners lying around collecting dust.
How are 2.5 HDDs not a thing? I have a 300GB WD black 2.5 in disk drive. Not to be confused with my solid state drives.

Would you believe it if I told you that 2.5" HDDs aren't even made in this size…

Seems like the 4TB isn't too bad for today's market at $265

Quote from MarkD77 :
In the sense that 2.5" HDD isn't a thing, sure. But assuming you meant SSD, there are actually several, they just aren't very cost effective.This thing isn't particularly cost effective either. It's over 25% more expensive per TB than the 4tb version. Most people buying a lot of storage are for long term file storage moreso than running programs. And anyone dropping this kind of money on storage could easily just have a mobo with extra nvme slots.But if you want *this* it's a good price for what you're getting. Cheapest 8tb gen4 nvme atm.

Gen-5 will get more popular next year with RW speed exceeding 1.3GB/s. Samsung started mass production already. Expect gen-4 price to further go down. I use 2xgen4 raid.

They are made in this size but they aren't sata, they are enterprise sas or something like that.

Think they were strictly speaking spinning rust drives, which I don't think enterprise SAS drives reach. U.2 nvmes, is another story though..

I picked up an 8tb samsung 870 qvo 2.5" sata SSD a while ago. I got it when drives were cheap for $329, at the current prices this is only slightly more expensive then the QVO and much faster with a longer lifespan. There are not too many 8tb consumer SSD options

No, there are plenty of 2.5" spinning disk drives. Laptops used them before ssd was cost effective.

And don't forget more expensive, so when next year you hear complaints about how these used to be so much cheaper a year ago...

8TB and 16TB 2.5 SSD are a thing. They just cost a lot. But samsung makes a 870 QVO 8TB for $625. But it is QLC. However it should outlive a high capacity 2.5 HDD.

TEAMGROUP EX2 16TB SSD is a bit pricy and hard to find. But i have seen it for around $1800-$2400.

You're right, I thought they were confusing SSDs and forgot smaller spinners were even a thing.
