EditShare EFS 300

EFS 300 delivers the performance and capacity required for today’s largest media-centric environments. Beginning with a 16 drive configuration providing generous bandwidth, the EFS 300 platform can easily scale from a single 64 TB master node, that includes FLOW media management and ARK archive workflow tools, to a fully expanded enterprise cluster of 1 PB and beyond.
