offers users with almost 7.2GB data of storage space, and in the past we have told you how you can easily mount Gmail and use it as a local drive, but imagine having the ability to mount 999 Gmail accounts as local drives, the amount of space you will have will be pretty enormous.

The software requires you to install GmailFS (Gmail Drive Shell Extension) a software that allows you to mount your Gmail account as a local drive, but with GmailFS you can only load one drive at any given time.

Gmail Drive Config is a add-on for GmailFS that allows you to load upto 999 Gmail accounts as a drive. You can add or delete the drive without rebooting your PC.

To add more than one drive, double click on the Gmail Drive Config (does not require installation) executable and provide a new username that will be used to load the Gmail Account as a local Drive and click on Add.

Once you have done that you can visit explorer to copy files to your Gmail account just like any other regular local drive. Enjoy the extra backup space and no extra cost.

    Does this have the 20mb upload limit? (GMail has an attachment restriction of 20mb)

    it takes so long to upload ANYTHING so its really not useful at all. its a better idea to get a external hard drive, or a flashdrive

Note: We discourage users from using keywords in their names while posting comments, most of them get caught by spam, also it really would be more fruitful in knowing people who comment by their real name, rather than by using a name no one relates to. In future we reserve the right to delete comments from users using a name other than their own.
