Air Live Drive
In an age where the Internet has solved most of out disk space problems via cloud storage services, it can become quite a hassle to manage all of them and their contents, especially if you are content with the free version of each of them, which offer a limited amount of storage to boast. Air Live Drive mounts cloud drives as local disks in your computer so you can open remote files with any application without having to synchronize or using local disk space.
Down to its very basics, you may consider this app as a reverse disk image mounting tool, only that you have your cloud storage clients instead of virtual disks. Those of you that hate constantly going back to the system tray to inspect the contents of all of your cloud storage clients, like Google Drive, Dropbox or OneDrive will rejoice knowing that this app allows you to display that extra storage as extra partitions.
Currently, the app supports over 15 cloud storage services, so it doesn't manner how spread out you are with your online files since you can always have them at hand Syncing is a common issue with these apps since usually, you can only edit files that are on your own disk, which are then subsequently synced with their online version. This is bad for when you edit files while there is no Internet connection but then restart your system. Air Live Drive mounts your cloud storages and opens remote files and allows you to work directly with the files in the cloud avoiding the synchronization process. One thing worth mentioning, if not obvious, is that you need a constant Internet connection in order to run the app.
Air Live Drive is great or those that love the feel of having everything on their PC, while still benefitting from the advantages of common cloud storage services.
