Double that if you mirror them. Am I correct? Why do you have to mirror them ? Usually a SAN make data redundancy using a RAID 4 or 5, this depend if you need read performances or write performances, in the case of Red Sherif I guess that guys are using RAID 50 ( 0 + 5 ) sets so what you waste is a disk for each set.

You might want to fix the month on your system time. With respect to how big PostgreSQL databases can get in practice, these are our two biggest implementations: - 0.5 Tb GIS database (this maybe upwards of 600-700Gb now, I didn't check) - 10 Gb OLTP system with 70 million rows and a typical working set of 2-3 Gb. Postgres is definitely capable of handling large pretty databases with ease. There are some narrow types of workloads that it doesn't do so well on, but for many normal DBMS loads it scales quite well. j. andrew rogers ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 9: the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
