Note: the driver was merged to the upstream kernel in 5.15. So this package is useless for Arch official kernels.
If you want bleeding edge updates, use ntfs3-dkms-git.

I made some test using bonnie and pts, this driver seems to be much faster than ntfs-3g

(disregard the read tests, since they were done from page cache)

edit: compilebench in pts, now includes native ext4, the paragon ntfs3 driver performance is comparable

Doh, neglected to clean my cache directory... building fine now, thanks!

@jason.houston try cleaning the aur clone directory. For example with paru you would do it like so paru -Sc

Hanabishi commented on 2021-06-02 18:33 (UTC)

@jason.houston, yes. Tried it right now: all checks passed.

jason.houston commented on 2021-06-02 18:10 (UTC)

I'm still getting the validity check error when trying to update, did the package get updated?

Yeah, seems like something changed in lkml.
Updated the package.

sha512sums for v26.*.patch seems wrong.

Hanabishi commented on 2021-05-19 13:51 (UTC)

@ricky26, which kind of corruption?
Wine/Proton creates files with incorrect names (like c:). So if you have issues in Windows after that, this is kinda expected result.
Btw ntfs-3g by default doesn't allow such names and Wine/Proton doesn't work with it at all. So NTFS is not the best choice for this.
As a workaround you can e.g. link Steam's compatdata directory to other filesystem.

I've experienced directory corruption with v26, I think it was introduced in one of the revisions. Seems pretty easy to reproduce by installing some large Steam games on my HDD (Proton is a good test case to exercise it with too).

I have never encountered filesystem corruption/failure using ntfs3 driver.

Hanabishi commented on 2021-05-09 07:26 (UTC)

@alireza6677, you should read warnings. Early development unstable things really may be unstable you know.
Also if you care about your hard drives, the power outage is the way worse than any driver failure, because it can damage em physically.
