That's no problem at all, depending on:
+ How complex are the queries you're intending on running?
+ How will the data be spread between the tables?
+ The amount of data per row also makes a difference, if it is
extremely large.

You're almost definitely going to be needing a SCSI or better RAID
array, plus a server with quite a few GB's of ECC memory.
If you need to get specific about hardware to the point of knowing
exactly what you're needing, you're likely best to pay a good PostgreSQL
consultant to study your proposal in depth.
Hope this helps.
