• Mac Write To Ntfs
• Ntfs For Mac Read Only

Before you are led to the introduction of free NTFS drivers for Mac, here is some background information in case you don't know.

You can read Windows NTFS drives on Mac. But Mac can't write to NTFS drives, including create, edit, copy, paste, delete, or transfer files on NTFS drive on Mac desktops and laptops. Do you know why?

NTFS is a file system developed by Microsoft, the competitor of Apple. NTFS is used by default on Windows platform, especially for system drive. Additionally, if you use Boot Camp to create a Windows partition on your Mac, you will find you can't mount BOOTCAMP Widnows partition with both read-write access either. Up to now, Mac operating systems, including macOS Catalina/Mojave/High Sierra/Sierra and Mac OS X El Capitan, only provide NTFS read support but deny NTFS write support.

You know the business, but for users, is there any way to let Mac write NTFS drives? Can you make the NTFS drive fully compatible with macOS or Mac OS X? Sure. The easiest method is to use NTFS driver for macOS software.

If you are looking for a totally free NTFS for Mac software, there are four options: Mounty for NTFS, NTFS-3G, FUSE for macOS and SL-NTFS.

NTFS for Mac - free drivers for macOS

Some Mac users may have upgraded to macOS Catalina and are digging around for an NTFS driver for macOS 10.15. But it's hard to find a Free NTFS for Mac that supports macOS 10.15 yet. Fortunately, iBoysoft has upgraded their software iBoysoft NTFS for Mac to be compatible with macOS Catalina.

If you are using a Mac running macOS 10.14 and earlier, you can try the NTFS driver for Mac below and share NTFS drives between Windows and Mac.

1. Mounty for NTFS

Mounty for NTFS is completely free software to enable write ability to NTFS drives on Mac. It has simple design to help users mount NTFS drives with write support on Mac.

As a free utility, Mounty for NTFS does have some highlights:

1. Totally free.
2. Fast download and installation because it is less than 1MB.
3. One-time installation and no additional driver needed.

But Mounty for NTFS dose get complaints because:

1. The write speed to NTFS drive is rather slow.
2. It can't mount the NTFS formatted drives in read-write mode automatically.
3. It can be unstable and fails to mount NTFS drives.
4. It can cause data loss problems.
5. It doesn't provide tech support.
6. The software is not compatible with the latest macOS Catalina or Mojave.

2. NTFS-3G

NTFS-3G is an open-source project from Tuxera, so the public can download this NTFS for Mac free to write to Windows NTFS drives on Mac computers.

Set aside its advantage for being free, NTFS-3G is complained a lot because of its poor performance. Some main drawbacks of this free NTFS driver for Mac are listed below:

1. Complicated installation. You have to know how to use Terminal or have already downloaded FUSE for macOS, Homebrew or Xcode.
2. Poor usability. Users have to use the software by command lines in Terminal instead of an interface.
3. Poor compatibility. NTFS-3G only supports macOS 10.12 or earlier. It doesn't support the latest macOS 10.15 and macOS 10.14.
4. Slow write speed. The file transferring is noticeably slow.
5. Tuxera stops maintaining this utility.
6. No technical support. As freeware, no technical support is available when issues occur.

3. FUSE for macOS

Mac Write To Ntfs

FUSE for macOS (was OSXFUSE) is another open and free NTFS driver for Mac from Tuxera that can enable write support to NTFS drives on Mac. In fact, FUSE is a file system extension that allows user to read and write disks with the formats that are not fully supported by Apple.

FUSE for macOS is worth trying because:

1. It is free of charge.
2. It is compatible with Mac operating system from Mac OS X 10.6 to macOS 10.14.
3. Multiple languages are available.

As a free NTFS driver for Mac, FUSE for macOS has some obvious limitations:

1. It can be unreliable sometimes such as file size being reported as 0 bytes.
2. It has no technical support when issues occur.

4. SL-NTFS

SL-NTFS means Snow Leopard NTFS. As a matter of fact, writing to NTFS on Apple is possible since Mac OS 10.6 without any third-party NTFS driver, but the NTFS writing support is disabled by default. Therefore, SL-NTFS is used as an interface on the Apple NTFS driver to enable writing to NTFS drives on Mac.

As a free NTFS for Mac app, SL-NTFS has some pros as followings:

1. It is free.
2. It is simple to install.

However, SL-NTFS has some cons to prevent people from using it.

1. It has limited access to a large number of files and a large volume of data.
2. It can't enable NTFS write on some NTFS external hard drives.
3. It can cause conflicts if you have another NTFS enabler installed.
4. It has no technical support.

Generally speaking, despite of being free, those free NTFS for Mac software have various flaws, making them very risky to use.

If you are afraid of using a risky free NTFS utility for Mac, there are two cost-effective alternatives for you. Even though they are not completely free, they can provide a lot of merits that free NTFS drivers don't have.
