You do not mention call volumes or simultaneous calls being recorded.  
If you are pushing around 70 or so simultaneous calls then you probably 
have an I/O issue with your hard drive.  Although, I received complaints 
from the phone users about audio chopping before the recording were 
affected.  I assume you are using the monitor app?
