Default Building my new server

So I'm building my new server today and was curious about the hardware requirements. I know it can be run on a very basic system, however I'm building a pretty good 8 core system. My question is about hard drive use/space.

I'm sure I don't need a SSD, but I have several sata drives to choose from. I have some 7200rpm drives, but with limited space, 160gb or so. I also have some larger, 1tb drives, but they are 5400rpm. Does the speed make much of a difference and how much space will a server take up?
