Description

Describe the solution you'd like The documentation about "size the cluster" could add support for the new SSD chart with the three part deployment. The current version as of now only show write/read. Example:

loki:
  authenabled: false
read:
  replicas: 75
  resources:
    requests:
      cpu: 3
      memory: 6
    limits:
      cpu: 3
      memory: 8
write:
  replicas: 58
  resources:
    requests:
      cpu: 1
      memory: 6
    limits:
      cpu: 2
      memory: 12

Describe alternatives you've considered N/A
