Macs can write to NTFS volumes now
I just recently bought a portable hard drive that was formatted with the NTFS filesystem and I was wondering if there was a way to write to the drive with my mac. Well, not natively, Macs can only read such a filesystem, but fear not! Go to MacGuy4.Us for the full solution. Basically, you have to download two pieces of software (one if you already have Parallels Desktop installed). For an added bonus, the new extension, NTFS 3G, you install will give the Disk Utility application the option to partition a drive with NTFS
