I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this question, but here goes.
I am trying to create a database with a preallocated amount of storage (eg. Filegroups in SQL Server).
Is this possible with postgresql or is there an equivalent.

No, PostgreSQL is not pre-allocating space.
This is definitely not a bug.
If you want that you should use a separate filesystem partition which can grow on demand.
