I do not see either. If Ptolemy won't be accessible by cassini and it's only task will be serving the mapnik render with gis-data, then I don't think we'll that much HD-Space on it. I'm unsure about the remaining system configuration (e.g. ptolemy has 8GB more RAM).
For the system configuration take a look to: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/OpenStreetMap#Servers It's not only a question of disk space, it's IMO more a question of disk speed and 16 HDs are faster than 4HDs.
So far I know are this servers also on different rigs and it's a question of foundation and verein. So the switch seem complicate. For tools are now also alternative servers from Fossgis online, so we should concentrate to the main target to bring the maps fast into Wikipedia. So it is perhaps simpler to replace the 4 HDs be bigger ones, add ones or do something else. I hope our hardware experts like Mark Bergsma have an idea.
