Hi Alex!
Yes, each node would use an even amount of space regardless of maximum disk
space available.
The "evenness" has to do with Riak's uniform data distribution due to the sha1
consistent hashing algorithm. The output of sha1 is a number in the range of 0
to 2^160. That range is partition
Riak does not currently try to protect you against dumping 2 gallons of water
in a 1 gallon jug, so each node will write data until it can’t.

Cool, thank you :) however, is true that if 4 nodes are 1TB and the other
one is 2TB; the 5 nodes will act as having 1TB each, right? (I guess that's
what you mean with "Riak allocates data to nodes evenly")
Thanks,

Hi Alex,
Riak allocates data to nodes evenly - it doesn't take into account free
space. You should just be able to upgrade all nodes to 1Tb and Riak will
use the space, without needing to take any additional actions.

Hi there,
I have the following question about scaling up vertically upgrading HDs to
get more space. I have the understanding that if HDs are of different sizes
on ring creation, they get the smallest size of them all and make all nodes
even, for example:
Node 1: 500GB
Node 2: 500GB
Node 3: 750GB
