As many as you can connect modems to your machine.

That depends on traffic on this lines. The HDD space depends on the size of the tiff-files you are sending (graphics or text) and the page count of your faxes. For sending many faxes at the same time you should have a lot of RAM for rasterizing with ghostscript.
