You can make a Droplet’s CPU and RAM smaller, but not its disk. You can resize a Droplet to any plan with an equal or larger disk, so if you previously resized only the Droplet’s CPU and RAM, you can resize it back down to a plan with the same disk size.

You cannot decrease the size of a Droplet’s disk. A Droplet may contain more data on its disk than a smaller disk would allow, and the data could not be transferred to the smaller disk without the risk of loss or corruption. To move to a plan with a smaller disk, create a new, smaller Droplet and migrate your data to it. For recommendations, see Considerations when Downsizing to a Smaller Droplet.
