EditShare EFS 410 storage unit

Purpose-built for Mission-Critical Production

EFS 410

Representing the pinnacle of media storage technology, the EFS 410 is built to support mission-critical media production with high performance, scalability, and fault tolerance.

Workflow

From Ingest To Delivery

Advanced Collaboration for Creative Workflows. Supports simultaneous media access and project sharing across multiple teams, with integration for Avid Media Composer, Adobe Premiere Pro, and DaVinci Resolve. Optional FLOW Asset Management adds workflow automation, remote browsing, proxy editing, and AI-powered metadata tagging.

Fault-Tolerant Design for Unmatched Reliability. Redundant power supplies, hot-swappable fans, RAID-6 protection, and mirrored, hot-swappable drives keep data secure and accessible, including through an entire node failure.

High-Availability for Broadcast and Playout Applications. Approved by leading vendors, with dual Metadata Controllers ensuring no single point of failure — a reliable backbone for global broadcast and telco operations.

Now Available in a Single Node Configuration. Run FLOW services with storage and metadata on a single node, no extra hardware required, then scale by adding production nodes, metadata controllers, or storage nodes as demand grows.

Scalable and Modular Expansion

Scalable and Modular Expansion

EFS 410 is designed with limitless growth in mind. Enterprises can expand storage as needed, scaling up to 15PB and beyond. Each additional storage node easily integrates into the EFS single namespace, eliminating the management challenges of other forms of media storage. As you add more nodes to the cluster, the system's throughput and performance increase at the same rate, so it keeps up smoothly with your growing storage needs.

High-bandwidth data flowing through the EFS 410

Consistent High-Bandwidth Performance

Consistent High-Bandwidth Performance

EFS 410 guarantees uninterrupted high performance even during peak usage. Its unique metadata management system minimizes latency by storing metadata in fast memory, preventing delays for multiple asset requests. EditShare Swift Read technology enables real-time access to media even if a storage node is temporarily busy, making it ideal for handling high-resolution media, including playout of UHD material.
