NTFS for Linux 7.0 Professional

Paragon NTFS for Linux 7.0 is a commercial Linux kernel driver for rapid and transparent read/write access to NTFS volumes. The Professional Edition includes the fully functional NTFS for Linux driver, complementary support, a driver to mount Microsoft Dynamic Volumes/Software RAID, and additional utilities to check partition integrity, defragment, wipe, create NTFS volumes and perform other NTFS file system related tasks from your Linux OS


Full features


Key Features

  • Easy installation - a script file is available which can build a driver, install it, automatically mount all local NTFS volumes and place them into fstab to automount them at Linux startup
  •  Full read-write access. With most Unlike of the competing drivers where you can only read from NTFS volumes, here you can also write - modify existing files, delete files, create or copy files
  • Linux kernels 2.4.X, 2.6.X support
  • Low system requirements
  • Supports all kinds of Windows Dynamic Volumes (simple, spanned, striped, mirrored and RAID5 volumes) and Software RAID via Paragon LDM (Logical Disk Manager) driver
  • Additional powerful utilities
  • Additional bootable disk. This disk is very helpful in emergency cases of unbootable systems - you can boot your system with this disk and access NTFS and Linux volumes with read and write access - take important documents or change configuration files to rescue system
  • Complementary support.*

General Features

Mount any NTFS volume like any native one, even including to fstab (to automount at each Linux startup)

  • 64 Bit architecture support
  • Supporting NTFS features (see also "limitations")
    • NTFS versions 1.2, 3.0 and 3.1 (Windows NT 4.0, 2000, XP, 2003, Vista)
    • compressed files
    • files and folders with security permissions
    • sparse files support (NTFS)
  • File and folder names in national languages (you can pass filesystem codepage name to driver), including Asian languages
  • No system degradation during data transfer
  • Support for SMP kernels (multiprocessor systems)
  • High performance - transfer rate is the same as for native File systems
  • There is no any limitation to maximum file and volume size (except within the kernel and NTFS limitations)

Additional Utilities:

  • cpntfs utility - is a simple and fast Paragon NTFS for Linux backup/copy utility that allows the user to copy and restore files, directories to/from/between NTFS partitions under Linux OS. The utility can be useful to make backups of NTFS file system and restore it later on the same or a newly formatted NTFS partition
  • chkntfs utility checks NTFS partition integrity and fixes errors, creates and displays a status report about the NTFS file system
  • mkntfs utility allows you to format any partition under Linux
  • infntfs utility shows NTFS version, used space, NTFS volume label, dirty flag, serial number and allows you to change them
  • fsutil utility is a Linux utility which you can use to perform many NTFS related tasks, such as managing file system information, additional streams, compression, hardlinks etc.
  • dfntfs utility enables you to defragment a NTFS volume
  • wipe utility allows you to fill up free space on NTFS/FAT volumes with zeros
  • mftpack utility allows you to pack/truncate MFT (MasterFileTable) on a NTFS volume
  • hdlnk utility allows to enumerate all hard links on a NTFS volume
  • junction utility allows you  to show reparse points on a NTFS volume

Additional Bootable Disk Components:

  • List of mounted partitions
  • Midnight Commander
  • Start the command line
  • Record files to CD/DVDs
  • Configure network connections
  • Log Saver

Limitations:

  •  NTFS features: encrypted files are not supported. The Body of a file will be copied encrypted with loss of decryption capability. To make a full archive the cpntfs utility can be used.
  • Attributes to be lost:
    • when copying from NTFS to Linux FS: all streams will not be copied, along with compression flag and security attributes (use the cpntfs utility)
    • when copying from Linux FS to NTFS: all security attributes (access rights and ownership) will be lost
  • Hardlinks and symlinks: any link will be copied as a full file with its body while losing link information
