I think it really depends on the speed and load of your storage system. Contrary to what you think, the bigger concern is not media streams, but when the media streams are played or recorded or anchored to the server and shared: auto attendant, voicemail, conference server.
So the big concern here is the media server (Freeswitch). So besides the necessary precautions for the kernel and timing, the storage subsystem and its expected load. A small server with half a dozen users would not notice it. Get a few conference calls going and its a different picture.
