This is not a trivial question of what size RAID array to use. Let
me quote Raph on this.

-----
  We share fancy databases over multiple servers. Said fancy
  databases cost $X up to a certain size. Then they cost ten times
  that if you go over that limit by one byte because you have to buy
  the "next size up."

The disk space is not the issue, the database license is the issue.
