Sorry,
just to further my other message. At this size, the iron it runs on is as important as the size of the db. You are likely gonna need some big machines and NAS / SAN to manage the storage.

Hi All,
I need you help. I need to design a very big data base, around 900GB or more of information but I never had design or manage this magnitude of information before. I really appreciate if you can point me to documentation to how can do this properly or you can help me with some experiance you have doing this.
Thanks, Luis
