After final compactions, InfluxDB uses between 2 and 3 bytes per field value stored. If your metrics are all numbers, then the total steady-state size will be a bit more than 3 bytes * (metrics per minute) * minutes of data stored.
See http://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.0/concepts/storage_engine/ and http://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.0/guides/hardware_sizing/#how-much-storage-do-i-need for details.
