"but certainly the larger you allow the database to grow, the greater those chances are"
On what do you base this assertion? I maintain that corruption is more due to faulty hardware and frequency of access than size of the database. That is, a huge database that is never used has a low probability of corruption. Just because a database is huge doesn't necessarily mean that it is more heavily used.

If you eat at the buffet are you more likely to get backed up and more difficult to restore versus a French restaurant? The chances of corruption exist regardless of database size, but certainly the larger you allow the database to grow, the greater those chances are. But you also need to consider the backup and restore windows, and quality of hardware. There is someone on this list with a 16GB mailbox.
