mdrodge Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 (edited) https://wiki.unraid.net/index.php/Mounting_an_external_USB_drive_having_an_existing_NTFS_file_system_in_READ/WRITE_mode_to_transport_files_from/to_unRaid_server starting to look like I'm just doing it wrong The TLDR is """"Linux had partial support of NTFS file-systems. In fact, unRAID comes with the ntfs loadable module that can read an NTFS file system, unfortunately, it is not able to properly write to NTFS file systems."""" """"(Note to Tom... might want to include the new ntfs-3g module in an upcoming release... hint-hint ... please)"""" It mentions a fix. Thanks for your help @Hoopster Edited June 29, 2021 by mdrodge Link to comment

itimpi Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 I write to NTFS drives without problems via the UD plugin. The Wiki article referenced is very old - Linux has been able to handle standard NTFS drives in both read and write mode for years. Link to comment

Ok thanks. was still pulling it apart and trying to bring it up to date but i guess if it works for you then it's not the issue. Very strange issue though. I'll pull one and try it in a usb dock.

mdrodge Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 (edited) seems fine (i can write a file) in windows but even with in a usb dock on unraid it's read only Makes no sense (it wasn't even the same windows system) I'll just fill them up in windows for now. I hope this isn't a sign of things to come though. Edited June 29, 2021 by mdrodge Link to comment
