I want to point out that we faced a lot of difficult to show that a
chunk has a capacity, and the space stored on the disk(s) is greater.
This leaded to show both the chunk (in term of Type and Profile [*]) and
the disk used.
The only thing that it will be a bit unclear is when the Profile is DUP,
because the disk usage is double of the space available.
For this reasons I am considering to put "2x" on the line related to the
disks.
Putting a "x2" In the total increase the confusion.
