I have had TLs on a very active server grow to a total of more than 2GB in a course of a day, on average.
One more thing to consider - what if your backup fails for some reason. What if it fails for a couple of days? It would be nice to have enough disk space to accommodate a couple of extra days worth of logs. Also if you plan to move a lot of users from one server to another (or import mailbox data from PSTs) - the TLs on the target server will grow a lot, pretty much the size of the moved mailboxes. I'd say, disks are cheap, go for an 18GB RAID1.

Any good links on how to set up an Exchange 2003 server, disk wise?
