There are many solutions to that. Back in the days when hard discs were expensive, it was normal to save on their cost by using NFS to mount discs for many users. An option that's still available, though not recommended 'cos of security issues: it's not compatible with regular firewall principles.
These days your baseline will probably be DAV (google that if you need to). Again there are many options, and what to choose will be a tradeoff between flexibility to do just what you want, and simplicity to let someone else to everything that's remotely techie. For the first option, you can get an entire (virtual) server in the cloud for $10/month, and do everything yourself from installing the operating system (your choice - usually some flavour of linux) up. The second would be the likes of your MS offering, and I'm sure many others (google, for instance).
