Is NTFS read/write support on CentOS stable?

I'm making a move from Windows to Linux, and would like to know if there is stable support for mounting a large NTFS volume (3TB), and whether it works both reading and writing to it.

CentOS 6.4. Thanks for any input.

    Didnt have problems in the last 5 years with opensuse/debian, centos should be just as good.

    Not sure about the volume size but I imagine you should be able to do this with ntfs-3g

  • I've never had a 3TB drive to try NTFS-3G with but I imagine it should work.

  • Why not?

    The reverse (mouting ext3 / ext4 partitions on Windows) is really in an awful state, there basically isn't anything that has write support. Haven't had the opportunity to test ntfs-3g yet, hence my question. :)

    Thanks to the other repliers also!
