Hi!

I think there are quite a few people out there using the NTFS-3G driver for
Mac OS X, so this is important news for you:

http://www.h-online.com/open/features/Linux-and-Windows-8-Fast-Startup-puts-data-at-risk-1780640.html

Since the last version for Mac OS X is stuck at 2010.10.2, there is hardly
going to be a fix for this on Macs. http://macntfs-3g.blogspot.co.at/

(BTW, if you use a Lion-compatible version of MacFUSE, NTFS-3G also works on
newer Intel-Macs.)

THIS IS A WARNING!
If you use it: please make sure, all partitions you mount on OS X were not in
use during a Windows 8 fast restarting featured shut-down.
Data loss will result!

Do not use drives/partitions that were mounted while Windows 8 was shut down
using this fast restarting feature technique. If you unmount it first (say, an
external NTFS formated disk), you’re safe. If you need to access the Windows 8
system partition or a partition on a fixed disk, shut down Windows 8
completely (without the new fast restarting hibernate-like shut-down).

Cheers,
Andreas  aka  Mac User #330250
