Had an instance with almost 2TB on disk in 2015, it's probably a lot more by now, if it's still running as-is. Was for analytics/data-warehousing. Though the big table was partitioned so queries were always nice and snappy. The machine had 128gb ram back then, but probably never needed that much. The applications working with the data ran on that same server, so processing latency was usually <10ms even for larger queries.
