I know there is a minimum storage capacity (40KB) required for AWS Glaciers but after reading so many pages of GCP's documents, I can't find any mentioning of minimum storage capacity required for Google Cloud Storage. I don't know if I have missed it. Does anyone know if there is a requirement for minimum storage capacity on GCP? Thanks

This page describes that there is no minimum object size in Google Cloud Storage:
The following aspects apply to all storage classes:
- Unlimited storage with no minimum object size.
- Worldwide accessibility and worldwide storage locations.
- Low latency (time to first byte typically tens of milliseconds).
- High durability (99.999999999% annual durability).
- Geo-redundancy if the data is stored in a multi-region or dual-region.
- A uniform experience with Cloud Storage features, security, tools, and APIs.

According to the official documentation:
This page describes quotas and request limits for Cloud Storage
There is a maximum size limit of 5 TB for individual objects stored in Cloud Storage
However, the document does not mention anything about a minimum object size.
Therefore I believe GCS does not have this limit.
