Does not sound too unreasonable. Going larger in disk size is probably
not worth the effort with a single Squid.

How much HTTP traffic do you estimate this Squid will process? The next
question is how many drives you should have this cache on, and this
depends on the request rate you need to sustain, not the size (with
modern drive capacities you rarely can use the full drive size for
Squid).
