There is a split here between the races: The Gallente ''Occator'' and the Amarr ''Impel'' can pretty much match the Iteron V for cargo space, but with double the effective HP (EHP). The Caldari ''Bustard'' and Minmatar ''Mastodon'' get about 23k m3 cargo (with shield extender rigs), but with 60-65k EHP, both with the option to swap 5k cargo for 11k EHP by fitting a damage control in a low slot. Trying to match that cargo with an Occator/Impel only gets you 40k or so EHP, so it's a "cargo vs. tank" thing here. Remember, though, that if tank is important then maybe a Blockade Runner is more suited to the cargo.
All DSTs have a base 50k m3 fleet hangar which can hold any type of cargo, even packaged battleships. As such, fitting these ships for cargo is redundant since cargo rigs and modules only affect the much smaller main cargo bay. DSTs should be fit and skilled into to play to their active tanking and overheating bonuses in order to maximize survivability, as these ships will primarily be used to transport large quantities of high-value goods.
