Hasleo NTFS for Mac

Utility for opening Windows-formatted storage drives

Hasleo NTFS for Mac is a free utility application developed by Hasleo Software. It is a storage management tool that helps macOS users open and read drives formatted in Windows' proprietary NTFS file system format. It facilitates both read and write operations and can work with a variety of devices, both internal and external.

Open any Windows-formatted drive

In a nutshell, Hasleo NTFS for Mac lets you access storage devices formatted in the New Technology File System, or NTFS for short. It’s a proprietary file system format used primarily on Windows PCs. It works with various storage types, from external disks to portable flash drives. Despite its name, it can also recognize other formats, including HFS+, APFS, FAT, and exFAT.

You can perform both read and write operations with it, making it quick and easy to exchange files between Windows and Mac platforms without needing to do any reformatting. Having said that, the performance is rather inconsistent and can run slowly at times. It ends up falling short compared to its contemporaries like Paragon or Tuxera, especially if speed and reliability are the main priorities for you.

Decent and completely free

Ultimately, Hasleo NTFS for Mac helps solve the issue of opening NTFS-based storage drives on Mac devices, and does it for free. That said, you do have to contend with its subpar performance. If you’re okay with that, give it a try now. Otherwise, there are other options available to you.
