Blockchain size in ethereum depends in the implementation. In Parity is about 6 GB, in Geth is about 11 GB. Geth is not implementing state pruning, so 11 GB would be a clean sync with --light, while if you don't use this would be 60GB+.
For disk space needs, see this answer.
--light
option and not with --fast
option?
