Faster NTFS driver
I've used the WD Live the last recent years. While using it I had a NTFS performance of about 9MB/sec.
With the Pi I only get about 5MB/sec with the same USB drive and fstab settings. I got the tip from the WD community that the WD is delivered with an commercial NTFS driver. I've looked for it and it's available for free for personal use: http://www.paragon-software.com/home/ntfs-linux-per You have to send a short request and will receive the download link via email. I've used as name "Raspberry Test" and a 10minute email adress and got the link within 5 minutes. The problem is that you have to compile the driver yourself. I've tried it yesterday, came above some issues but it still crashes within the compiling process due some dependencies. I think my Linux skills aren't suitable for such tasks. So will perhaps someone with better Linux skills try it? If the difference is really the NTFS driver it could provide us an gain of nearly 90% of speed. |
