How do I upload files to an external hard drive using terminal? [duplicate]
Solution 1:
Use ntfs-3g:
Install Homebrew
-
Install fuxe4x and ntfs-3g
brew install fuse4x && brew install ntfs-3g
-
Replace (with backup) the
mount_ntfs
:sudo mv /sbin/mount_ntfs /sbin/mount_ntfs.orig sudo ln -s /usr/local/sbin/mount_ntfs /sbin/mount_ntfs
-
Get info on fuxe4x-kext
brew info fuse4x-kext
You should be given two lines based on your version that you need to run. Run these lines in Terminal.
Eject and remount the disk.

It's not free but I have had great success w/ this product: http://www.paragon-software.com/home/ntfs-mac/

If you have a seagate device, then Paragon for Seagate is free and reliable.
