High-performance media storage

EFS 310

High-performance, high capacity. Engineered for intensive post-production and corporate environments, with single-namespace scalability that grows with you.

EditShare Ultimate EFS 310 storage unit

Effortless scalability

Grow without interrupting a single edit.

Modular architecture that expands as you do. Starting at 96TB and scaling to 2.8PB, you can add new storage nodes without interrupting workflows or complex reconfiguration. The EFS unified namespace means you grow your storage without juggling multiple volumes or user accounts, giving teams centralized access to the assets they need.

High-performance, high capacity

Built for your most intensive workflows.

The EFS 310 has been engineered for intensive post-production and corporate environments. With a modular scale-out architecture that starts at 96TB, it delivers impressive performance improvements over previous generations, ensuring uncompromising speed and responsiveness as your storage grows.

Optimized performance

Full speed on every platform.

Smooth, high-speed performance under load. Using the EFS Native Client, a multi-threaded driver, the EFS 310 minimizes overhead and latency for Windows, macOS, and Linux workstations. Bonded Ethernet ports offer flexible networking from 10GbE to 100GbE, and each node provides direct data transactions to prevent bottlenecks, so performance stays uninterrupted even during peak production.

Built for demanding production

Protection, automation, and control.

Everything a high-throughput facility needs to keep production moving, built into every node.

Robust data protection and redundancy. XOR parity and COPY protection give the EFS 310 resilience against node failures, while SwiftRead dynamically re-routes traffic if nodes are congested, keeping workflows smooth during maintenance or peak demand.

Advanced workflow automation. FLOW Asset Management and Automation streamline production, with cataloging, logging, and search plus integrated NLE panels. FLOW's workflow factory turns complex processes into customizable, automated workflows that scale with you.

Comprehensive security and analytics. EditShare Guardian delivers real-time insight into CPU, memory, and disk usage, while EFS Auditing tracks all file access and user activity, with optional integration into third-party SIEM systems.

Integrated workflow tools. An All-in-One configuration runs FLOW services and storage on a single node. FLOW handles media logging, cataloging, and editing, and ARK Media Archive automates LTO backup and retrieval with proxies kept online.
