Maybe before we spent 1k on disks:

How much diskspace do we have now?
How much of it is used?
And what stored is on it?
And why is this massive amount of storage (4.5 TB assuming they are in
RAID5) needed?

I feel 1k is a big amount for a small e.V. like ours, and before
deciding on the spending of it we should probably first discuss the
issue and evaluate other options.
E.g. maybe we can find a sponsor to donate some space and bandwidth on
their server.
