Hi guys,
For the last few years I enjoyed using the (free) Paragon NTFS For Mac software in combination with my Seagate external HDD. I am forced to use the HDD - which includes my movies - in this format because my LG OLED TV only supports NTFS (and not exFAT for example).
Since updating to a new M1 MacBook (and Paragon NTFS For Mac 15.8.108) everything worked fine at first sight, but the last few months I notice that a lot of the files I transfered (let's say 1/4) became corrupted during their transfer from my MacBook to the HDD. I always test the files on my MacBook before transferring, so I know they work perfectly. But once they are on the HDD approximately 1 in 4 don't work anymore. During transfers I never get a notification that something went wrong, which makes it difficult to predict which files are faulty.
Do any of you also experience this problem with Paragon NTFS since M1? Are there any other solutions? Ofcourse I always prefered Paragon because it was free to use with Seagate drives, but if I know for sure that other software does not have this kind of issues, I'm certainly willing to pay for it.
