Easiest free way to enable NTFS HDD on MacOS?

Question

NTFS

Good day!
Please tell me the easiest way to enable support for an external HDD (NTFS) drive to a macbook for reading / writing?
I looked towards macFUSE but it doesn't seem to fit BigSurf/Monterey

Answer 1

macFUSE does not have its own NTFS driver, but offers to load NTFS-3G, which is buggy and slow.
I like firewood from Paragon which is free in trial mode.

And with a little hack, the trial can be made eternal.

1. We put 2027 in the MacOS settings.
   
2. Install, run Paragon, take a trial for 10 days and do not reboot.
   
3. Disable Paragon, close it. We return the year to today.
   
4. Reboot.
   
5. Trial is now eternal.
   

Answer 2

download from the torrent lotion from paragonNTFS

Answer 3

Native means through the terminal. I saw it somewhere on stackoverflow, I won't say it now.
I have Big Sur 11.5.1 (but I doubt that this will change much for future versions, well, in the next couple of years for sure)
For me it worked like this:
First you need to look under which disk the system has identified the connected disk. This can be viewed in Disk Utilities or with the command diskutil list
. Usually it will be something like /dev/disk2s1 (or /dev/disk3s1 - depending on the disks already connected)
Next:

sudo /sbin/mount_ntfs <connected_disk from diskutil list> /Users/<your_userdirectory>/<path_to_some_directory>

the directory itself (the mount point, the directory in which the contents of the connected disk will be visible) must already be created in advance, for example:

sudo /sbin/mount_ntfs /dev/disk2s1 /Users/CoolUser/Documents/mount/2
