The difference between the Textstring and the Textarea is that the first one is stored in the datanvarchar-column in the table cmsPropertyData, and the TextArea is stored in the datantext-column.
The datanvarchar column is (a bit dependent on your exact Umbraco-version) normally 500 characters long.
The datantext column is a ntext column and according to Microsofts documentation superlong (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/t-sql/data-types/ntext-text-and-image-transact-sql).
