EDITSHARE 'UPS THE ANTE'; INTRODUCES NEW HIGH-PERFORMANCE, MID-RANGE SHARED STORAGE SOLUTION AT NAB 2011
New EditShare ‘Energy’ Series makes its official debut
Las Vegas, NV —April 7, 2011—EditShare®, the technology leader in cross-platform collaborative editing and shared media storage systems, will unveil the new high-performance, cost-efficient ‘Energy’ shared storage product line at the NAB 2011 exhibition (Booth SL4728). Designed for small and mid-size production workgroups, the new ‘Energy’ Series provides outstanding speed and agility with over 700 MB per second read and write performance per server or expansion chassis. “EditShare first exhibited in Las Vegas eight years ago offering a single 2TB shared storage system, said Andy Liebman, founder and CEO of EditShare. “This year, we showcase a robust tiered storage environment featuring the brand new price-busting ‘Energy’ Series along with ‘Xstream’; our highest performing shared storage solution that can scale to petabytes. We have always been about giving customers tremendous value and our new mid-range Energy models out-perform comparable solutions like Avid ISIS 5000 – at a price point that is significantly more attractive.”
The new EditShare Energy Series offers the full range of EditShare innovation including Avid and Final Cut Pro project sharing. Project sharing lets editors draw on the same central pool of media and work in the same project simultaneously – freely and safely sharing raw material, bins and sequences. No per-seat license and media-optimized Gigabit and 10-Gigabit Ethernet connections support workgroups and high stream counts with simplicity and cost- effectiveness.
