The rule of thumb is roughly 5-mins per GB for DV25 and this includes 25P. The hard drive used makes no difference except for it’s ability to sustain sufficient trabsfer rates, which almost all modern drives can easily cope with.
HDV uses the same drive space per minute as DV25, the difference being that HDV is an MPEG2 compressed signal, which enables the data rate to be reduced to that of standard DV hence the ability to record on standard DV tape.

The following link will take you to a downloadable (or online) storage calculator for the various formats. It also gives the data rates.
