Anyone know why the hard drive requirements are so large? Also they say 500gb and 1TB in different locations

"The image provided here requires at least a 1TB disk."

The 1TB one is due to the way Clonezilla images work, it expects a drive with at least 1TB capacity to mirror the image back.

The 1TB requirement is for the default install, if you use the custom Debian-based installer that isn't an issue.
