#ntfs — Public Fediverse posts

Uh,, cool! I just realized, I can use the Unicode Symbol U+2044 as a forwards slash in file names. These ⁄ .⁄ ⁄ ⁄ are working with NTFS without causing an issue. This is quite nice, because the regular / / / / slashes just won't work.

#Hacks #Unicode #Filenames #NTFS #Slash #Windows

Linux moment. Genuinely. Somehow Linux was able to force a colon into my NTFS drive and now I can't rename this file on Windows. 🫠

I'm not even using the bloody thing anymore yet it still finds a way to fuck things up for me. Surely the NTFS driver had to have some sort of restriction here? Hopefully NTFSPlus handles this better.

@carlton @sethmlarson And does the consensus against symbolic links arise from inexperience? Windows didn't let unprivileged users create symlinks in NTFS until Windows 10 build 14972 in 2018, and even then only if developer mode is on. Instead, Windows desktop users' experience since 1995 has been with shortcuts, which operate at the shell level, not the file system level.

New post on The Byte Architect:

**Filesystem Wars: Why Your Choice of Storage is Actually a Security Move**

This is not a “which filesystem should I use?” checklist. It is a walk through the ideas behind FFS, BFS, NTFS, ext4, ZFS, and APFS — and why storage design is never just about storage.

Crash consistency, journaling, soft updates, CoW, snapshots, encryption, space sharing: different filesystems solve different problems, and those choices shape reliability, usability, and security.

The real target, of course, is APFS.

Aujourd'hui je vais vous parler de la place qu'occupe réellement un 📄️ fichier ou un 📁️ dossier sur le disque de votre ordinateur. Il s'agit d'une problématique bien plus complexe qu'il n'y paraît ! 🐰️

Dans cet article je vais me concentrer essentiellement sur #Windows et #NTFS car il s'agissait de mon cas d'usage, mais la problématique générale s'applique aux autres systèmes de fichiers même si leurs structures diffèrent 😄️

The improved NTFS driver lands to the upcoming Linux 7.1 kernel! 🎉

Linux 7.1 finally features the improved NTFS driver!

The current versions of Linux feature the present-time Paragon NTFS3 driver that is included in the kernel to add support for NTFS file system to it, so that users can finally mount the NTFS partitions, especially when it comes to Windows system partitions, as long as the Windows system is fully shut down.

Prior versions of Linux included an early read-only NTFS driver that allowed you to read files from NTFS partitions but not write to them. This was a severe limitation to those who needed to write files to those partitions, especially when they needed to repair Windows installations, such as Windows XP, which uses NTFS as the default file system for the system partition.

While the present version of Windows uses NTFS as the default file system, Linux 7.1 now features the improved NTFS driver to address the shortcomings of the two drivers. This improved NTFS driver was under development for four years under the name of “NTFS Plus” by the veteran Linux developer, Namjae Jeon, who gave us the Linux exFAT driver, and has been submitted for pull request for the Linux 7.1 merging window, as you can see here.

Shortly afterwards, this pull request has been approved for inclusion in the source code of Linux 7.1, which means that the first release candidate of Linux 7.1, which is expected to release on April 27th, will feature the new NTFS driver. When building the kernel, you can enable this new NTFS driver to replace the existing Paragon NTFS3 driver using the NTFS_FS Kconfig variable.

This new, resurrected NTFS driver provides full write support for NTFS file system with better stability compared to the present-time NTFS3 driver. It also provides support for mkfs (file system maker to format partitions using mkfs.ntfs) and for fsck (file system checker to check partition integrity using fsck.ntfs), and uses the modern Linux features, such as folios for improved performance and IOmap for better I/O operations. This driver can be compiled as a module, which can be found as ntfs.

We expect that the new NTFS driver dethrone the current NTFS3 driver as soon as Linux 7.1 becomes publicly available!

RE: https://mamutovo.cz/@xcabal05/116271609941010484

Původně jsem měl NVMe disk zformátovaný na #NTFS. Včera jsem zjistil, že po zformátování disku na #exFAT se rychlost zápisu zdvojnásobila na 1 GB/s. Rychlost čtení dosahuje také 1 GB/s což je asi i reálný limit USB 3.2 Gen 2. Špatná propustnost je vlastnost NTFS nebo jeho ovladač je v #Fedora Linux tak neefektivní?

OoO Microsoft apparently managed to finally add an actual feature people have been requesting for years.

You now finally can install Windows (Server) onto ReFS instead of NTFS volumes.

Hope they didn't #vibecode that support too. Filesystems were already quite messy beforehand.

J'ai racheté un #HDD #Imax pour son contenu. Mon vendeur étant window$ien , souis Debian il faut mounter la bête qui a une partition EFI de 200Mb et le reste 4.5 T format #NTFS. Donc pour mounter ça, il faut installer ntfs-3g sur Debian avec apt install ntfs3g Je crée un répertoire /mnt/Imax avec les permission 755 ensuite un sudo fdisk -l pour trouver le disk dans mon cas, /dev/sda2.
Exécuter mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/Imax et voilà.
