I would probably go with less size osd disks, 4TB is to much to loss in
case of a broken disk, so maybe more osd daemons with less size, maybe 1TB
or 2TB size. 4:1 relationship is good enough, also i think that 200G disk
for the journals would be ok, so you can save some money there, the osd's
of course configured them as a JBOD, don't use any RAID under it, and use
two different networks for public and cluster net.
