This is a pretty good case for ZFS. zfs volumes sharing a zpool
can be quota'd so that they each have allocations; setting the
total quota to less than the zpool capacity (80% would be a good
percentage) means that there should be lots of time between the
event daemon telling you that a filesystem is running out of
room and you having to do anything significant about it.

Bonuses: snapshots, compression, and better-than-rsync backups.

All of Greg's concerns are valid.
