mine 20.6G now
If you are going to run a website, at least 30gb since the blockchain is going to get bigger and bigger.

I think it will go to a point that only the businesses will have the entire blockchain, i used to have it in 2013 with 7 gbs and if in 2 days i dint open it, i needed to wait like half hour to sincronize.. ans that was in 2013
mine takes 19gb fully synced
At least 25GB, preferably more than 30GB if you plan to run it for more than a few months. The blockchain is rather large (just under 20GB right now).
If you want to run a light version of bitcoin, try installing multibit or electrum. If you want to just mess about with bitcoin then run bitcoind in testnet mode (only requires just over 1GB of space); testnet bitcoins are free!

cool! Thank you sooo much! Is there a tutorial to show how to install multibit or electrum to CentOS through Mac SSH (terminal)?
Thank you,

By using the command line, you can transfer your bitcoin wallet data to the other hard disk.

Hi,
I'm following this -- http://blog.domenech.org/2014/04/install-official-bitcoin-wallet-aws-ec2-linux-ami-redhat-rhel-centos.html tutorial to install my bitcoind. When I was doing 'Initializing Blockchain database using Torrent', my terminal shows 'Disk space is low'. So I'm wondering the size of space to install the bitcoind.
Thanks,
J
