'''Note:''' writing to NTFS partitions is considered experimental and at least some people think it very risky (see for example [http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=81021 thread] and [http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=42632 thread]). If you are going to use the software below to write to an NTFS partition, make sure you have backups first. |

Write NTFS
This page probably doesn't belong here and links to a fair bit of commerical software that does what the Linux NTFS and Captive driver do already. But it's roundup of NTFS drivers if you, for instance, wanted to start reverse-engineering multiple existing implementations... ahem.
Note: writing to NTFS partitions is considered experimental and at least some people think it very risky (see for example [http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=81021 thread] and [http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=42632 thread]).

- Presumbly read-write equivalent of above.
Resize:
- Partition Magic / PQDisk library, commerical (PQdisk is shipped with Xandros Delux at $60)
- Can resize/move contents
- ntfs-resize, Free source
- Seems to require a defragment of the disk from XP first (to move everything to the front of the disk), then it seems to adjust the bad-clusters and in-use bitmaps.

Same functionality as the Linux driver: " Significant understanding of the NTFS file system layout was derived by studying the Linux-based NTFS driver code maintained by Martin von Loewis. We acknowledge his indirect contribution to this endeavor."

Write:
[http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/ntfsdospro.shtml NTFSDosPro], commerical binary, wraps ntfs.sys
aka captive-for-dos: "The advantage NTFSDOS Professional has over NTFSDOS is that it relies on Microsoft's implementation of NTFS rather than our own information on the NTFS file-system layout."
