Open-source 9Drive merges multiple Google Drive accounts into one virtual drive
Since Google officially doesn't support merging multiple Google Drive accounts, a developer has open-sourced 9Drive, a self-hosted storage gateway app that aggregates these accounts into a single virtual storage drive. It quickly gained about 2.8k stars and 507 forks on GitHub. The project offers a self-hosted solution for users looking to pool free storage across multiple accounts.
Confirmed
- 9Drive is open-sourced under Apache-2.0 as a self-hosted storage gateway web app, with the GitHub repository publicly available
- It unifies multiple Google Drive accounts in a single dashboard, showing total storage at a glance
- Uploaded files are automatically routed to accounts with remaining space; each Google account includes 15GB of free storage (shared with Gmail and Photos), so multiple accounts can theoretically add up to around 60GB
- Beyond Google Drive, it also supports S3-compatible storage such as Cloudflare R2, MinIO, and Backblaze
- Self-hosted deployment requires creating your own Google Cloud OAuth client
- Project traction: 2.8k stars and 507 forks (some posts mention 3k stars, a slight discrepancy)
Why it matters
- Google has long offered no way to merge multiple accounts, and 9Drive fills that gap with an open-source approach that isn't limited to the Google ecosystem—it can also manage various S3-compatible object storage in one place
- For users and developers seeking to consolidate free capacity and centrally manage storage, it provides a controllable, self-hostable option
