apparently all Western Digital drives have a RISC-V controller, as well as NVIDIA graphic cards https://riscv.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Tue1100_Nvidia_...

WCH makes a microcontroller that sells for around 10 cents; it's cheaper than a 7400 quad gate, so it's bound to end up in a ton of things. It occurred to me that they are like electric motors: unglamorous but ubiquitous (there are several dozen electric motors, mostly small ones, in the room I am sitting in right now)
