Key features
  • Full read-write access. Mac(R) OS X just provides “read” access to NTFS partitions. Paragon NTFS for Mac(R) OS X provides full read-write access, i.e. besides reading files you can also modify existing files, delete files, create or copy new files.
  • Easy to install. The driver is easily installed through a user-friendly wizard, the way it is usually done under Mac(R) OS X.
  • Easy to use. Mount any NTFS partition like any native one, so you don’t have to perform any actions to get access, just plug a disk or any media with NTFS partition and use it as you wish.
  • Non-Roman characters and languages. File and folder names in national languages, including Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Russian.
  • High performance. Transfer rate is the same as for the native HFS file-system.
  • No system degradation during data transfers.
  • There is no any limitation to maximum file/partition size (but within Mac(R) OS X and NTFS limitations).

Supporting NTFS features
  • All NTFS versions are supported (from Windows NT 3.1 to Windows Vista)
