Ich denke mal, dass die Paragon Lösung der Fuse + Ntfs-3 - Lösung überlegen ist, vor allem was Performance betrifft. Dafür allerdings auch nicht kostenlos!

Key features
Full read-write access. Mac OS X just provides “read” access to NTFS partitions. Paragon NTFS for Mac OS X provides full read-write access, i.e. besides reading files you can also modify existing files, delete files, create or copy new files.
Easy to install. The driver is easily installed through a user-friendly wizard, the way it is usually done under Mac OS X.
Easy to use. Mount any NTFS partition like any native one, so you don’t have to perform any actions to get access, just plug a disk or any media with NTFS partition and use it as you wish.
Non-Roman characters and languages. File and folder names in national languages, including Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Russian.
High performance. Transfer rate is the same as for the native HFS file-system.
No system degradation during data transfers.
There is no any limitation to maximum file/partition size (but within Mac OS X and NTFS limitations).

Supporting NTFS features
All NTFS versions are supported (from Windows NT 3.1 to Windows Vista)
Compressed files and folders
Sparse files
Files and folders with security permissions

Supporting Mac OS X features
Resource forks
Hardlinks
Symlinks
File permissions (POSIX file attributes)

Additional utilities
“newfs_ntfs” utility formats any partition as NTFS under Mac OS X
“fsck_ntfs” utility checks NTFS partition integrity and fix errors, creates and displays a status report about NTFS file system

Limitations
NTFS features: encrypted files not supported. Body of a file will be copied encrypted with loss of decryption capabilit.
When copying from NTFS to HFS: all additional streams will not be copied, along with compression flag and security attributes.
Hardlinks and symlinks: any link will be copied as a full file with its body, losing link information.

Known issues
There is only one issue related to Paragon NTFS for Mac OS X 6.0 at the present moment. This issue relates to Mac OS X 10.4.6 up to 10.4.10 under Intel-based Macs only. Please note, this issue does not damage the file system and is caused by the Finder application.
Issue : When trying to create a second folder in the root directory using the Finder application the first folder will take the name of the second one.
Resolution:
1. Unmount and mount the NTFS partition;
2. Update your Mac OS X up to 10.4.11 or higher.
