NetDrive

NetDrive connects remote storage and shows them like a hard disk. With NetDrive, your PC will have multiple new drives that connect FTP/WebDAV servers and cloud storage. The tool supports connections to Dropbox, Google Drive, Box, OneDrive, Amazon S3, and OpenStack Swift.



NetDrive is a powerful PC software application designed to bridge the gap between your local storage and cloud storage services. It essentially allows you to mount cloud storage as a local drive on your computer, enabling seamless access to your files and documents stored in the cloud directly from your desktop.

Accessing files will be as easy as any old file folder on your PC. Once you mount the local drive, you don't need to run each application for an FTP or cloud storage service. Client interface but a simple drag-and-drop in your Windows Explorer will be sufficient to transfer and manage files. NetDrive is free for evaluation use. You will need to purchase a license after evaluation use.

Highlights

Cloud storage as a virtual drive
Managing your favorite cloud storage services could not be easier. Simply provide login information, and all your cloud storage will automatically appear as a virtual drive every time you start your PC.

NAS storage as a virtual drive
You can connect to NAS servers by WebDAV or FTP. Many NAS vendors recommend the tool as a standard way to mount their NAS products. Share your NAS easily with anyone as a virtual drive.
