I've used Tuxera NTFS, it run OK but can't access the folders have case sensitive attribute.
Anybody have other methods?
Thanks!

Tuxera is REALLY slow. Try copying a big video file to an NTFS hard disk (not an SSD), you'll see it's slower than it should be. Also, while copying the file, try accessing anything on that hard disk. It will take ages.

I actually purchased a license for Tuxera NTFS since I found it was a fair deal, but the performance is abysmal. I switched back to Paragon NTFS after months of slowness; I could not take it anymore.

ahem Well, to answer your question, Paragon make the best NTFS driver for macOS. There is a way to enable NTFS writing support through Terminal but it's unsupported and I've never tried it.

This is what I use, still works on Big Sur.

I tried using Mounty and it gave me one problem: every time I touched a file (i.e. opening it), it would set a new timestamp for "date modified". I know it's not Mounty's fault, but macOS's. Anyway, I don't like this behaviour at all, so I switched back to Paragon.
