Good choice on the 4GB. This will allow you to put old volumes on DVD if you want and remove some temporarily. Also you will not notice a difference in performance between using many 4GB volumes versus few 100GB volumes. A lot of users go for the bigger volumes but then it hurts recycling and it also hurts moving files around. I can say that rsync to a remote server will be better with 4GB volumes versus 100GB.
