  1. Apple devices are often lamented for vendor lock-in owing to the multitude of compatibility issues they have with PCs. If you've ever tried plugging in an external hard drive or other kind of storage device to your Mac, then you've already experienced just how limited these devices can be. Although MacOS does provide limited support for NTFS-formatted drives, it leaves a lot to be desired. Most importantly, the native support for these Windows-formatted storage devices only allows for reading the information on them. You cannot edit, copy, move or delete files unless you connect the device to a system running Windows or another operating system that offers native support for the world's most popular file system. To enable functionality of the same degree in MacOS, you need to use an additional driver.

  3. Tuxera NTFS for Mac lets you use external USB drives, which are formatted for Windows, on your Macintosh device without any such restrictions. You can swap drives regularly between the different operating systems without any problems, which makes it a must-have solution for anyone who regularly uses both brands. It also comes in very useful if you want to enable the seamless exchange of data between the two operating systems. For example, if you dual boot both operating systems, you will probably need a way to exchange data effortlessly between the two. The driver easily handles files through virtual machines as well, which is ideal if you want to give MacOS a test run on your Windows PC using a virtual machine layer like VMWare or another.
