MAIN CAPABILITIES
The XStoreSE is a fully scalable and flexible server for the storage of clips, media, live feeds, and any content originated from production servers or NLE stations, for either short- or long-term archiving. The world’s top broadcasters consistently choose EVS storage and gateway solutions for their reliability, security, and expandability.
DEPENDABILITY & SECURITY
The XStoreSE is field-proven and reliable in even the most extreme broadcasting conditions. Hot-swappable redundant power supplies ensure your content is never lost, and cutting edge storage architectures like fibre channel, SATA, and SAS make the XStoreSE the most up-to-date storage server available.
“We save time and money because we have direct access to content during production for scripting or highlighting purposes. Also, we can check that a sequence has been synchronized even before it has finished. We no longer need to search through recorded tapes during post production and we have more logging flexibility.”
