7 reasons to use latest Paragon NTFS & HFS+ for Android

1 – The highest performance on the market

Compared to open source NTFS solutions, Paragon NTFS & HFS+ for Android achieves the highest performance levels: Kernel-level implementation option, fine tuning and consistent development allow Paragon’s driver to achieve the highest speeds to date. The first software developer to implement a full set of drivers with read-write access to partitions of any file system, Paragon delivers the highest performance cross-platform technologies — proven by millions of installations around the world from consumers to embedded systems manufacturers. Intel, NVidia, Broadcom, Realtek, Huawei-HiSilicon, Marvell, Telechips, Acer and many other companies have selected our solutions for use in some of the world’s best-selling devices.

2 – User-requested NTFS and HFS+ partition automounting feature is finally available!

The only cross-platform tool on the market with NTFS and HFS+ partition automounting feature! The new automount option, which can be conveniently activated or disabled in “Settings,” allows users to simply insert an SD card or a USB flash card, and all NTFS and HFS+ partitions will be automatically mounted.

3 – The fastest Mount functionality enables instant access to the content. No more waiting!

It can take up to a minute to mount media from an external NTFS volume. Paragon Software provides a new Fast Mount feature to retrieve background file systems while the operating system proceeds with other tasks. The software also checks file system integrity to ensure the mounted volume is clean and consistent.

4 – Strong journaling capabilities: safely complete uncompleted transactions even after unsafe media removal

Imagine the following scenario: Unplug your SD card or USB Flash from the desktop PC without having to take further actions – like clicking on the “safely remove” tray app. Some non-completed file system operations can damage data. Paragon’s solution to this problem is to assure complete safety through a technology that responds to the transactions before any other application starts working with the media.

5 – Smart Standby mode technology

The new Standby Mode technology allows external devices to be ejected without any effort, while guaranteeing complete data safety at the same time.

6 – Enhanced functionality is out

Paragon Software added new functionality:
• Check utility allows users to quickly verify and repare damaged volumes.
• Format utility allows to re-format their drive with NTFS/HFS+ filesystem.

Paragon Software announces official launch of Paragon NTFS and HFS+ for Android – the most reliable solution that breaks interoperability barriers between Android devices and Macs or PCs

After a highly successful beta test by nearly 50,000 Android users, Paragon NTFS and HFS+ for Android is now available for FREE at Google Play!

NTFS and HFS+ for Android is the first technology available on the market that enables users of Android-based smartphones, handheld media players, digital video and other portable devices to utilize storage media formatted by Mac OS and Windows operating systems. The launch follows a highly successful two-month beta test by nearly 50,000 Android enthusiasts. With the growing popularity of Android devices, Paragon NTFS and HFS+ for Android is now available absolutely for free at Google Play.

Mac OS users who copy movies onto an HFS+ formatted portable HDD are unable to access the video file on Android-based media players without a built-in HFS+ driver. Windows PC users who want to record a program received by an Android-based media center to a USB stick that uses an NTFS file system run into problems writing data directly to the NTFS partition without a built-in NTFS driver. Paragon NTFS and HFS+ for Android grants full, unlimited access to the most popular file systems, allowing users of Android-based smartphones and multimedia devices to easily transfer, copy and modify data on NTFS or HFS+ volumes. Data interchange with Mac OS-formatted HFS+ storage or recording onto NTFS-formatted storage become seamless, frustration-free operations.
