Here are answers to what customers typically ask about Microsoft NTFS by Tuxera. Just reach out if your question isn’t listed here.
No, because our driver relies on our proprietary fail-safety feature. This makes the mount and boot time faster than in journaling-based systems. However, we support journal play—if a user unplugs a volume from Windows unsafely and has a dirty journal, we can play that journal and recover the volume before it’s used.
Pricing varies based on your specific requirements, deployment scale, and support needs. Contact our team for a customized quote that fits your project.
Our implementation is up to six times faster than open-source alternatives, with significantly better fail-safety features to prevent data corruption during power outages or when devices turn off unexpectedly.
