Wait, there's a volume type called I01? What is this, some kind of sci-fi reference?

I think for a business critical SQL server, GP2 or I01 would be more appropriate.

GP3, no doubt about it. The latest and greatest EBS volume type, can't go wrong with that.

ST1 is the way to go - it's cost-effective and should handle the SQL server just fine.

I'd go with I01. More expensive, but the performance is worth it for a critical workload.
