Implemented to improve all kinds of user space driver performanceīut again, we always prefer data integrity over performance. For example in some quick tests ext4 read wasģ.4 GB/s versus ntfs-3g 2.8 GB/s, and write was 1.3 GB/s versus 1.1 GB/s.Īdditionally there are still several technical solutions which could be However how relevant are those for NTFS users?

But if you have a three-person company, you need three licenses, one for every person. So it is enough to have one license to install the software on your three Macs at home. With one license you can copy the software to your every personal computer. ![]() "Tuxera’s licensing model is one person = one license. The only thing which annoys me about Paragon is that it feels 'cheapened' by the fact that they've done so many half price days and giveaways over the years, that it makes me want to buy Tuxera because a) it's priced as a premium product and offers a lifetime key (which presumably doesn't apply to the discount licences offered by Paragon) and b) I've greatly benefitted from their community-focussed free NTFS-3G in the past ![]() Paragon NTFS is $34.95usd for 3 Macs in one household whereas Tuxera is $34.43aud for one person in one household on as many Macs as they own. Can't seem to find any online coupons for either unfortunately and they are both pretty closely priced. In light of the MacFUSE/NTFS-3G combo not being that friendly with Lion, I've decided to buy either Paragon or Tuxera. I also am planning to buy Tuxera now that I'm having issues with Lion but am hoping that there will be a discount coupon or something to that effect. ![]()
