The fluid volume will correlate with the area of the caliper pistons.
Campa I believe had Magura get them started with their disc brake efforts, and Magura uses mineral oil like Shimano does.
I would have liked to try using SRAM hydro rim brake calipers with Shimano levers, but that would involve mixing incompatible fluids.
Don't ask me why I would want to do this!
