The requirement means a hard drive with at least 30GB of free space on it. The game will not take up a full 30GB, but you should always leave some empty space on a HDD as headroom, and it's common for game system requirements to factor this in. The idea is that if the requirement said exactly how much space the game takes up (say, 10GB), some people would read that requirement and then install the game on a hard drive with only barely enough space (10.4GB free), and then they may encounter problems when running the game or doing other things with that hard drive, in spite of technically meeting the system requirements.
