  1. 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!

  2. RE: mamutovo.cz/@xcabal05/11627160

    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?

  5. Извлекаем файлы из образа повреждённого диска: ddrescue, losetup и немного магии

    Проблема повреждённых жёстких дисков знакома многим. Диск начинает работать со сбоями, система зависает, файлы исчезают. В этой статье мы разберём, как спасти данные: создадим образ повреждённого диска с ddrescue, подключим его через losetup, смонтируем разделы и извлечём файлы. Также рассмотрим восстановление удалённых данных с помощью утилит TestDisk и PhotoRec и разберём, что делать в случае проблем с NTFS.

  6. NEW: a feature to remove dead/unresolved #SIDs from #NTFS permissions

    Are leftover SIDs from a previous #ActiveDirectory domain migration bothering you? Or maybe the ghosts of former employees continue to haunt your #fileshares

    If so, this #PowerShell script is for you!
