I have a media server containing several storage policies. 
Now I need to move one of the policies and files to a new media server. 
How do I find how much physical storages space the storage policy uses on the disks of the media server?
And is this size the same it will use on the new server when moved (create new primary copy)?

Good morning.   You could run a Storage Information report.  

This report will give you a breakdown of how much space each storage policy copy is using on a given media.
