I don't intend to change anything once it is built - if I can help it.
I am speccing 2TB disk (kernel mirrored, so: 2 off 2 TB disks) + one that
I already have for nightly backups (before occasionally off loading to a USB disk).
I hope that that should be enough, but could add more disk later.

I want to build something that will last a few years without needing to fiddle.
