I dont think there is a recommended HDD size for storing photos. The larger a drive is, more photos can be stored but the greater risk of loss through failure. I detract but I use CF cards that allow 200 photos then I change to another card. I take several cards home at the end of a day in case one fails or is lost.
I use 120GB disks that allow one year of my photography to be stored. I am upgrading to 200GB due to better cost/GB ratio. I always have two copies of all photos taken and processed in two separate places.
