All the data log files for a given topic-partition are stored under a topic-partition directory in a particular data.dir. So a topic-partition directory can grow up to the capacity of the log.dir director. And there can be multiple topic-partition directories in a data.dir. It depends topic-partitions retention size and the disk capacity.
After JBOD improvements (KAFKA-4763) and with multiple disks, broker will continue to work even after disk failures.
