Something is fishy about NTFS-3G sparse files. you know how I might be able to check for that? I have access to a windows systems, but that doesn't really help for copying data, because win doesn't know hfs and wifi is way too slow.įlo: Okay, I can reproduce. About the os x driver: Yeah sure, I know it's strange.

Connection: Yes, I'm connecting it exclusively over the usb port, cause the mac book air lacks a firewire port (always used that on my old windows notebook) and has only one usb port. (by something else I mean Firefox, maybe itunes, so no cpu intensive stuff) Then when I look at activity monitor, ntfs-3g isn't always on top, and it doesn't totally flood (for lack of a better word) the cpu, but gets at least up to 40/60 % i think sometimes. Build used: stable MacFuse Core: 10.5-1.7.1 (I think) OS version: OS X 10.5.4 with all latest updates Maybe I should refine the part about cpu usage: If I connect the 2 drives and let them do stuff, and generally try to do something else the system gets really sluggish. Could this cause an issue? I really just wanna finish moving my files to hfs cause ntfs-3g is eating cpu cycles for breakfast. Hardware: This is my first mac, (Mac Book air) so I'm not sure, but hardware wise it should be more than able to copy files, even with the ntfs driver, right? This of course means that both drives are connected to the same usb port. I checked the drive multiple times under windows, it's fine, also, I did not knowingly enable compression/encryption or stuff like that.

Also, you might say "Why not use apples driver for copying?" Well, turns out apples driver sees on of the folders only as a file, not as a folder. Sometimes there's wuite a difference (at least 300 -400 MB, 20-40 files or so) Any idea how I can make sure all file are there? Sidenotes: Maybe I'm using one version older than this, have to check. I copy some folder (let's say 40 G, some less, some more) and afterwards I check the file/folder numbers and the size. (also an Western Digital MyBook as above) apart from cpu usage always being insane (though i guess it's ok if you don't use it regularly) I have some weird behaviour. just switching all my data from an NTFS drive to an hfs drive.
The internal hdd in my mac doesn't show any errors too and I run S.M.A.R.T. I don't think it's a hardware error related to the WD MyBook drive, as these errors happen only when accessing the NTFS fs with NTFS-3g, not on XP with native support, nor on linux when accessing the ext3 partition. CPU usage with ublio enabled for ntfs-3g is in the range 16% to 20%, when ublio is disabled it sometimes drops to 10%, but mainly stays in the 16% to 20% range too. The data transfer with ublio enabled is way faster, something around 70% (depending). Then I copied the third folder again, no errors this time. Then I unmounted the device, run the "disable caching" command and remounted the disk. I deleted the folder, tried again and got a -36 error (deleted the folder again). The third folder however (670MB) produced a -43 error halfway through the process. I copied another folder (650MB), no error again. I copied a folder with 10GB content to the FW disk (ublio enabled), everything went fine. If you have any information on a pretty way of solving this issue, I'd love to hear about it.

Intel users only: Install the rEFIt boot manager for better control of the boot process.Holding down the Option key during boot (or Alt for non-Apple keyboards).I don't have a solution for this, but you can still choose your startup drive by: Disabling or uninstalling ntfs-3g brings them back. After installing ntfs-3g, all NTFS drives will disappear from the "Startup Disk" preference pane.For me, copying the affected files to a HFS+ drive using the command "cp" worked fine. This issue is hard to solve in a pretty way, but you should still be able to access these files when using the Terminal. This is because Finder apparently expects all filenames to appear in unicode decomposed form, while NTFS allows both composed and decomposed form filenames. Files with filenames created in Windows containing international characters with accents, umlauts and similar dots and lines, or filenames with korean characters might seem unreadable in the Finder.This package has been tested with OS X 10.4.11/Intel and OS X 10.5.4/Intel.
