 Very handy utility November 20, 2008

I have a Macbook on which I use a program called VMWare Fusion to run Windows programs like Quicken. The external hard drive that I use to back up my Windows programs did not work for my Mac programs because the Mac did not recognize the NTFS file system on the hard drive. After doing some research, I discovered this product, which enables me to go seamlessly between backing up my Windows and Mac programs on the same hard drive. The program resides in the background, so once you install it, there is nothing further to do.
Although there is a free program called MacFuse that does the same thing as the Paragon product, for my needs it had certain technical quirks, which is why I bought the Paragon product.
I downloaded a trial version of this product from the manufacturer's website to try it out. When I was ready to purchase, I ordered the CD from Amazon because that was cheaper, and without any problem used the information on the CD to register the product without having to reinstall it from the CD.
One tip if you use VMWare Fusion or a similar program: After backing up Mac data on the hard drive, eject it in Finder, and then reconnect it on the Windows desktop, and vice versa. If you forget to do this, you may have to restart the computer to get the hard drive recognized.
If you work with both a PC and a Mac, or in my case have Windows installed on your Mac, this is a great way to use one hard drive for all of your needs.
 Good Product but limited October 6, 2008

This software allows you to access an NTFS formatted hard drive with an Apple Mac.
The access is limited however. It is not possible to play large video files from the NTFS hard drive. By large I mean anything over 2-3 GB. I find this to be an annoying problem. The work around is to copy the file you want to play from the NTFS external hard drive onto the computer. This is the only problem I have noticed so far. I give the product 6 out of 10.
Paragon's NTFSforMacOS October 1, 2008

I bought Paragon's NTFS for Mac OS X because I had just purchased a Seagate 750GB Hard Drive to transport files from PC to Mac and vice versa. Low and Behold, the beloved Mac OS 10.3.5 (Leopard) read, but did not write the NTFS file format. I installed the download version from Paragon's web site (Search it on Apple Store for Link), and it installed smoothly on my MacBook and ran successfully by replacing the standard driver. No other effects, ill or otherwise have been seen to date. I successfully copied about 80GB of music files, 20GB of .pdf books, backed up all my other drives and jump-drives and still have 600GB left. When the trial period expired (It isn't really Shareware as Apple states), I purchased the CD from Amazon.com cheaper than a download license at Paragon (free shipping over $25.), and the license numbers unlocked the trial version without a glitch. And I have the CD for backup.
Good product, good installation, good price and service from Amazon.
Allowed full access to NTFS disk drives from my Mac September 30, 2008

This product does what it says. I installed it, and could begin working with NTFS disk drives. Since I had a number of Windows drives around, this let me access them from my Macintosh without any changing of the format. I continue to need to share drives between Macs and Windows computers, and FAT32 won't allow the large file sizes that I sometimes encounter. NTFS for Mac has solved my problem.
 Great Software August 18, 2008

I'm transitioning from PC to Mac. I have a Western Digital My Book external harddrive that is also connected to my PC via USB (the Mac Pro is connected via firewire). I wanted to keep the drive connected and used by both systems and this software/driver made it possible. This capability should have been built in to the Mac OS! But since it's not, I'm glad to pay for this affordable software.
