Hi all This is a situation which I am sure a lot of our members frequently come up against. Do you ever find yourself needing to write content to a hard drive which is formatted as NTFS, but the data is all on your Mac and it's way too large for network traffic? There are a couple of free drivers out there which I have actually tried, and I had little or no success with any of them. One which springs to mind is "Mac Fuse". I stumbled across Paragon NTFS the other day while I was looking for something entirely different, and I decided to give it a try. I installed the application, restarted my Mac and there we are, I have full read/write access to any NTFS drive I care to attach to my Mac. not only that, but in Disk Utility, an extra format option has appeared which allows me to format NTFS partitions using my Mac.
For me, this has broken down a very big barrier and I consider it very well worth the $20.00 which I paid for the utility. Again yes, I know there are free ones out there and if you have better luck with those than I did, that's great. But for me, Paragon solved the problem of large data exchanges and I am very pleased with it.
