In Leopard I can access an NTFS formatted drive in read-only mode. The
only reason to bother with NTFS-3G is if this feature is not available
in the version of OS X you are using or if you want to be able to
write to the NTFS formated drive from your Mac. No?

In other words, I'd check to see if you can simply attach the drive
via USB and read it before bothering with using another program you
may not need to accomplish what what you want to do.

And if the Mac asks if you want to reformat your NTFS drive ... don't do it. No?

FWIW,
