(Very) Approx: 500M for binaries

        200M for "empty" database
        x Mb for your data

Many people have databases smaller than yours, many have much larger then yours - in both cases, some of them have performance problems, some of them don't...

Design/implement/tune your database/server correctly and you won't have any problems...
