•     Transparent read-write access to NTFS and HFS volumes — single Kernel module provides support both NTFS and HFS+ file systems
•     High performance (in some cases even better than native Linux FS);
•     Easy installation and uninstallation (performed via shell scripts);
•     Support for modern Linux Kernels and distributions;
•     Support for SMP kernels;
•     File sharing over network via SAMBA;
•     Low CPU load during data transfers;
•     Unlimited file and volume size (within NTFS/HFS+ and Kernel limitations).

• Mount any NTFS and HFS+/HFSX volumes like native Linux ones. Automatically add volumes to fstab (for automatic mounting at Linux startup).
• 64 Bit architecture support
• Supported NTFS features (see also "Compatibility")
  • NTFS versions 1.2, 3.0 and 3.1 (Windows NT 4.0, 2000, XP, 2003, Vista/Windows 7)
  • compressed files (NTFS)
  • sparse files support (NTFS)
• Supported HFS/HFSX features (see also "Compatibility")
  • HFS+/HFSX version shipped with MacOS 10.4, 10.5, 10.6
• File and folder names in national languages, including Asian. Codepage for filename translation is specified via mount options.
• Low CPU load during data transfers
• Support for SMP kernels (multiprocessor systems)
• High performance — transfer rate is the same as for native File systems
• There is no limitation to maximum file and volume size (within the kernel and NTFS or HFS+/HFSX limitations)

Additional NTFS utilities:

•     mkntfs utility - format any partition as NTFS under Linux;
•     chkntfs utility - check NTFS partition integrity and fix errors;
•     dfntfs utility - defragment an NTFS volume;
•     wipe utility - fill with zeros free space on a NTFS/FAT volume;
•     infntfs utility - show detailed information about NTFS partitions;
•     mftpack utility - pack/truncate MFT (Master File Table) on a NTFS volume;
•     hdlnk utility - enumerate all hard links on a NTFS volume;
•     junction utility - show reparse points on a NTFS volume;
•     fsutil utility - perform many NTFS/HFS+ file system related tasks.
•     infntfs utility - show detailed information about NTFS partitions;
  

Additional HFS+ utilities:

•     mkhfs utility - format any partition as HFS+ under Linux;
•     chkhfs utility - check HFS+ partition for integrity and fix errors;
•     fsutil utility - perform many NTFS/HFS+ file system related tasks.

Compatibility
NTFS features

•     Reading and writing compressed files is fully supported in both sequential and random orders.
•     Encrypted files are read encrypted. During copy operation, file data streams will be copied encrypted with loss of decryption capability.
•     When copying from NTFS to Linux FS: all additional streams will not be copied, along with compression flag and security attributes.
•     Any link will be copied as a full file with its body, losing link information.
•     NTFS stores filenames in UTF-16 encoding. This may cause confusion when very long filenames containing non-latin characters are used and UTF-8 is selected as default Kernel codepage.

HFS features

•     Both case sensitive and case instensitive types of HFS+ file system are supported.
•     During file copy operation (using cp command) on Linux only ‘data’ fork is copied.
