I guess the OP is talking about Recovery Point Objective, which is one
of two important parameters WRT to disaster recovery. It's the maximum
data loss you agree on with your backup solution. That mostly depends on
the database context, something we can't tell. And according to how much
you agree to lose (one minute of activity? one hour?), you then can
choose between pg_dump or PITR backups.
But with a 1TB-database, I wouldn't dare using pg_dump. PITR backup is
the only option.
