It depends on whether or not you're syncing to the mainnet. If you're running a private node as I outline in the tutorial it doesn't take much space at all.

I didn't check; but it is a negligible amount memory.

If you're running an up-to-date Mainnet Ethereum node is around 830 gigs according to etherscan. (etherscan.io/chartsync/chaindefault)

While an archive node on Ethereum sits at around 7.5 terabytes: etherscan.io/chartsync/chainarchive
