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

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.
