Any way to make my Mac write + read to NTFS drives ?
 

I read on another response that there is a hack for this, I also notice paragon make ntfs for mac, is it any good?

I ask because there is a coupon for it that is good until 10-31-2011.

is the hack easy to install? & does it work? is it free?

I am on a mid 2010 i7 macbook pro running snowleopard 10.6.8

I've not use Paragon NTFS for Mac: http://www.paragon-software.com/home/ntfs-mac
But I've come to trust Paragon quite a bit -- all of their backup and migration software is excellent, Mac or Windows.
If I wanted a reliable NTFS system, I'd use that.

Another competitor is this: http://www.tuxera.com/products/tuxera-ntfs-for-mac/
Not use that one, either.

Please share it. :D

This is the free NTFS-Mounter: http://ntfsmounter.com

I don't suggest it. I tried it, and it acted quirky. When you don't want your data corrupted, quirky isn't good.
It's free, but that doesn't really matter much to me.

Then you should be fine with Paragon. :thumb:
