There are some storage calculators: AJA DataCalc, Video Space Calculator. Nothing complex, but keep also in mind that actual required storage size will be more than raw disk size due formatting, RAID levels etc.

A 'base' value is ~33 GB per hour for 8-bit RGB at 24fps. Multiply by 1.25 for 30fps, and/or by 1.5 for 12 bits/pixel, or 1.25 for 10 bits/px. 3840x2160 = 8294400 pixels per plane x 3 for RGB = 24883200 px per frame x 24 fps = 597196800 px per sec x 60 sec = 3.5831808 x 10^10 px per hour x 8 bits per pixel, / 8 bits per byte = ...
