If you have 16GB and you got 1% per day.. in less than 100 days you would
be at 32GB.. If growth continues you will theoretically be at 60GB+
within a year.

If you can afford it the more the merrier.. given that you likely will
have this machine for a good couple of years.. as your data grow what was
once "overkill" will become "a good amount" of memory. So I would say do
get the 16GB if the budget allows it.
True...

How will you monitor disk failures? Does that controller can be monitored
with FreeBSD in some way?
I believe it can, not sure how well, though. Status control can be done
with this util:
/usr/ports/sysutils/cciss_vol_status <http://cciss.sourceforge.net/>
Thanks
