Mount SFTP or SMB Storage as Local Drives with RcloneView — Self-Hosted Cloud Integration

· 4 min read

Make your NAS, home server, or office file server behave like Google Drive: mount SFTP or SMB as a real drive letter or /Volumes path with caching, buffering, and a GUI.

SFTP and SMB are the backbone of self-hosted storage—Synology/QNAP NAS, home servers, VPSs, and corporate file servers all rely on them. But mounting them reliably across Windows, macOS, and Linux often means OS-specific quirks, fragile authentication, no caching controls, and no unified view with your clouds.

RcloneView fixes that. It wraps rclone mount into a friendly desktop app so your SFTP/SMB shares act like modern cloud drives—complete with VFS cache, thumbnail streaming, buffering tweaks, and automation.

Hybrid Cloud Made Easy: Combine NAS, S3, and Cloudflare R2 in One Workflow

· 5 min read
Steve
Senior Engineer

Bridge your on-prem NAS with S3-compatible clouds and Cloudflare R2 using RcloneView’s visual workflows.

Teams want LAN-speed collaboration plus cloud durability and edge delivery. That means:

  • A NAS (Synology, QNAP, TrueNAS, etc.) keeps day-to-day files close to the team.
  • Amazon S3 or Wasabi stores long-term backups, analytics data, or compliance snapshots.
  • Cloudflare R2 pushes content to users globally without surprise egress bills.

Juggling these manually is painful—different portals, scripts, and cron jobs. RcloneView unifies them:

  • Add NAS (via SMB/NFS/WebDAV), S3-compatible buckets, and Cloudflare R2 in the same Explorer.
  • Use Compare, drag-and-drop, and Jobs to automate every leg of the workflow.
  • Track history, alerts, and dry runs to keep hybrid operations auditable.

Protect your NAS data with zero scripting. Use RcloneView to connect Synology or QNAP devices directly to your favorite cloud storage—Google Drive, OneDrive, Amazon S3, or WebDAV—and schedule automatic off-site backups.

Why back up your NAS to the cloud

NAS systems like Synology and QNAP are perfect for local storage, media libraries, and file sharing—but they’re still vulnerable to theft, fire, or hardware failure. Off-site cloud backups add a critical layer of protection by ensuring your data survives even if your NAS doesn’t.

RcloneView gives NAS owners an easy way to automate that process, with:

  • No command line setup
  • Drag-and-drop transfers
  • Visual sync previews
  • Scheduled backups
  • Support for 40+ cloud providers
