What is ExpanDrive?
ExpanDrive is a desktop application that connects remote cloud storage to your local file system. It works silently in the background to give you real-time, filesystem-level access to services like these:
– Amazon S3
– Google Drive
– Dropbox
– OneDrive
– Backblaze B2
– SFTP/FTP servers
– WebDAV and more
It’s perfect for individual users, developers, creatives, and small teams who want fast access to remote files – without syncing or opening a web app.
