When working with Macs and PCs at the same time, you will at some time hit the stumbling block of hard drives with different formats. Paragon NTFS for Mac OS X is an NTFS driver that provides full read/write access to NTFS formatted volume with the same speed as OS X's native HFS+ format.
The latest version of the driver features full support for 64-bit Snow Leopard and Lion, but can also be used in 32-bit mode. Using the driver means that shared files can be accessed with ease without the need for potentially expensive hardware.
With the driver installed, existing files on NTFS partitions can be modified and deleted, and you also have the option of creating new files. Use of the driver is incredibly simple and a driver can be used to mount NTFS partitions.
There are no limits to the size of NTFS partitions that can be accessed, and support is available non-Roman characters. A Windows version of the driver is also available that can be used to enable Windows computer to access HFS+ partitions.
NTFS for Mac 11 ships with these changes:
- Support for the latest OS X 10.9 Mavericks
- Added Software update center
- New simplified installer Interface
- Improved stability and performance
- Bug fixing
Verdict
Paragon NTFS for Mac OS X is an essential installation for anyone working with Macs and PCS, as it helps to break down the barriers that exist between the two operating systems.

It is pretty fast with NTFS transfers (slightly slower than OSX extended partitions obviously) and I’ve never had any problems mid-transfer or anything. For me, it’s always done what it said on the box, and now with V14 it’s got El Capitan compatibility, so no complaints here. If you’re looking for a way to have plug-and-play NTFS drives on your mac, there really isn’t a better alternative to Microsoft NTFS for Mac by Paragon Software. Highly recommended for all Mac users!

If you have a Mac and you need to access volumes that are formatted NTFS, this is the best solution out there. Why Apple hasn’t just baked in support for NTFS after all these years still remains a mystery. I’ve been using Microsoft NTFS for Mac by Paragon Software for several years now and have never had any problems with it.
