RoamDrive simplifies the process of using your web-based email to store files. You can now make use of the extra storage in your inbox to store your favorite documents, music, photos, videos, and more. What's great is that not only does it tie into your existing e-mail account but you're also able to access your files from anywhere you can access the Internet.

stopbuggingme, are your Gmail account using non-English language? If so, change it into English. RoamDrive works well with Hotmail, MSN, Live Mail and Gmail. BTW, visit

for a list of the best free Gmail applications, most of which are to use Gmail as online file storage space.

it didnt work for me. installed it twice, gave it 3 gmail accounts. failed to connect all 6 times. maybe because i am behind a router or firewall or something. but i can access each of those accounts just fine via firefox, so i guess roamdrive should be able to as well. if it can't, well, it should.
abt banner ads and stuff, not too intrusive, so i dont mind really. guy's got to have some source of income, right? though yes, advertising it as non-adware is definitely shady.

Google has already been blocking accounts that transfer files. I didn't read the GMail EULA, but it could very well be a violation of it (transfering files). GMail has terminated many accounts already that where used by GMail Drive.

Let me just say something here, utilities like these are DOOMED to failure due to the sheer nature of the task they perform. Would I use a utility like this? Hell yea, I love it. Will I actually use it? No. Because it will be dead relatively quickly.
This is because the MOMENT these kinds of software become "stable" and truly usable, they also inherently become ABusable. Meaning that sooner or later individuals will find a way to start utilizing this software as a means to facilitate the transfer of "warez". Software, pr0n, Movies, music, E-books, you name it.
And of course once that happens, the e-mail providers will simply find a way to block the programs from working. Period.

Ok 2 flaws here.
1. It doesn't work with Hotmail accounts, even though it say it does. I imagine ust a small error check error, but still.
2. This is adware. They say you will never see an ad outside of the program. You don't have to ....if it has adverts in it, it is adware! not a huge problem for free stuff, but it is mis advertising.
Great idea. 3 purely for concept as i can not test it properly. At least it seems to be spy and mal ware free
