I tried to scan through the linked article (and OP) but couldn't quite figure out Troy's storage requirements. Are they really massive?

The sum of the GB figured shown in the OP doesn't even amount to 200GB AFAICT. But even if it's something like 10TB that's still not super expensive on many hosting providers.
