sp_estspace helps you estimate table
and index space requirements based on the definition of a specific
table.
- Space for planned views, stored procedures, defaults,
rules, and triggers.
- Size of the transaction log.
- Space for anticipated expansion.
- Database device location, and whether there is enough space on that device.

a different device than the data.
