THE PROBLEM

Your Media Lives in Five Places. Nobody Knows Which One Is Current.

Some footage is on a NAS. Some is on portable drives. Some got uploaded to cloud storage last year and nobody’s sure which version is the right one. Every new project starts with the same question: where is the media? Media storage that wasn’t built for production creates fragmentation that compounds with every project.

THE CURRENT WAY

Media scattered across drives, NAS units, and cloud buckets.

Footage lives on multiple drives and NAS volumes. No single view of what exists.

Adding storage means new mount points, new paths, and re-linking projects.

Drive failures trigger panic. RAID rebuilds take media offline for hours.

Remote editors can’t access the same storage as on-site teams.

Scaling means buying a bigger box and migrating everything to it.

WITH EDITSHARE MEDIA STORAGE

One namespace for all your media. Add capacity without downtime.

Every file in a single namespace from 32TB to 20PB+. One path, one view.

Add nodes to expand. Storage rebalances automatically. No re-indexing, no new mount points.

XOR redundancy delivers 40% more usable space than mirroring. Editors keep working during drive failure.

Remote editors mount the same storage as on-site. Same paths, same permissions.

On-prem, cloud, or hybrid. Choose the architecture that fits your operation.

National Film and Television School Expands Its EditShare Platform

“EditShare sits at the heart of how we teach production at NFTS, the new tiered storage and NVMe layer give our students the bandwidth they need to work the way modern productions do“.

“We pushed the system as hard as we could, and we couldn’t break it. With our previous SAN, we were constantly dropping frames and struggling to keep up. With EditShare, the bottlenecks are gone.”

HOW IT WORKS

What Changes When Storage Is Built for Media, Not Files

EFS was designed for teams that work with large media files under deadline pressure. Every feature exists because production teams need it.

Single Namespace

All media in one unified view regardless of how many nodes you add. No volume juggling, no re-linking, no mount point management.

Scale-Out Architecture

Add storage nodes without downtime. Capacity and throughput grow together. No forklift upgrades, no data migration.

XOR Redundancy

More efficient than mirroring, more resilient than RAID. A full node can fail and editors keep working. 40% more usable space.

Multi-Editor Performance

Sustained throughput for 4K and 8K workflows. Multiple editors, multiple NLEs, same storage, same time.

Remote Access

Remote editors mount EFS as local storage. Same file paths, same performance profile. No VPN workarounds.

Hybrid Deployment

On-prem storage with cloud extension. Keep high-bandwidth editorial local while stakeholders access media from anywhere.

WHY IT MATTERS

Your media stays where you put it. Full control, full visibility.

EFS runs on your infrastructure. No media leaves your facility unless you send it.

Roles-based access controls at the project, folder, and file level.

Guardian audit logging tracks every file access for up to a year.

No per-seat licensing. Storage costs scale with capacity, not headcount.

How is Video Storage Different

For media teams managing massive files, tight deadlines, and fast-paced collaborative workflows, generic file servers just don’t cut it. In this article, we explore how media-optimized storage differs from standard IT storage, and why making the switch can be a game-changer for creative teams.

Revolutionizing Remote Collaboration

The “office” is no longer a single building when it comes to media production. It’s a global network of edit suites, home offices, and field locations. But for years, the barrier to seamless collaboration has been the dreaded VPN. Here is how we solve the remote access puzzle for good.
