With the relatively recent transition of default EBS from magnetic to SSD-backed storage with burstable IO, I suggest you test out your workloads and see what meets your required performance levels. I've successfully run ES on slow magentic-EBS when I couldn't justify the cost of PIOPS+EBS optimized instances but your needs may be (read: probably are) different than mine.
