Hello,  I'm Mike with the Storage Gateway team.

A good starting point for EC2 if you don't know your workload requirements is m5.xlarge and make the root volume of the gateway GP3.

Hi Oussama,

In the process of using the last features of the service the last AMI available should be used. 
The instance requirements can be found in the File Gateway documentation ( https://docs.aws.amazon.com/storagegateway/latest/userguide/Requirements.html ). In the meanwhile the instance type choice is tied to the usage of Gateway , monitoring resources on the gateway can help to have the best suitable instance type. ( https://docs.aws.amazon.com/storagegateway/latest/userguide/Main_monitoring-gateways-common.html )

Thanks
