I think for you only 80 GB of space is needed. First format a partition with size of 80 GB [prefered ext4] filesystem. Then you need to install a perl script called apt-mirror. You need to configure by setting up its parameters as how it applies to you. Run the apt-mirror. And schedule a cron job to do weekly sync of your local repository with the main mirror of the distro.
