I haven’t used TNT drive – it looks like it might work – they say they let you map a system drive to the Amazon storage.  Very interesting, I’ll check on it some more.

I have used the CloudBerry product for a couple years, it’s great for file management on an S3 drive, but it has its own interface, like an FTP client (FileZilla or WinSCP). It lets you browse the S3 stuff, move files back and forth, etc. but it doesn’t (as far as I can tell) actually make the S3 drive accessible by another Windows app such as TMS, especially not as mapped to a Drive Letter as TMS seems to require.

Subject: Re: Amazon S3 with TMS for media records

I’m interested in this as well, for TMS and for any other storage-intensive on-prem applications where folks are loading content into S3/ Azure as opposed to local disc.

FWIW: there are some tools that let you map S3 buckets as Windows shares (for example TntDrive, Cloudberry) so maybe one of those would work?
