Implementation of NTFS in Linux - are there any problems with write correctness now?

Question

linux

Previously, I remember, NTFS under Linux was read with a bang, but it was written through a stump-deck, which chkdsk then stumbled over from time to time. Now the situation has improved on the last core, or is it still not worth writing partitions on NTFS under Linux?

Answer 1

Hello,
No problem. USB-1Tb with NTFS has been wandering between Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS X, OS X, macOS, OS/2, eComstation for five years now.

Answer 2

Actually, there are problems! ( Moris Haos )
Same, standard kernel implementation - read only!
There is an ntfs-3g driver, but it's under FUSE. He knows how to read and write, there are no special problems with him.
As for OSX, it's also read-only. If you want to record - if the paid Paragon NTFS driver.
And yes, there is an NTFS-3G driver for Mac, also via fuse from the community - https://github.com/osxfuse/osxfuse/wiki/NTFS-3G
Oops, a little wrong, but a little. There is a record, but it is limited.

- This is a complete rewrite of the NTFS driver that used to be in the 2.4 and
earlier kernels. This new driver implements NTFS read support and is
functionally equivalent to the old ntfs driver and it also implements limited
write support. The biggest limitation at present is that files/directories
cannot be created or deleted. See below for the list of write features that
are so far supported. Another limitation is that writing to compressed files
is not implemented at all. Also, neither read nor write access to encrypted
files is so far implemented.
