You can name the empty directory anything you want, I used "usb" (you only need to do this once) mkdir /mnt/user/data/usb since I already had a user-share folder named "data" in my user-share file-system I made my mount point there. Once the package is installed, you must make a mount point (an empty directory) to mount the new drive.

You could add a line to the end of your "go" script to do this install every time you reboot. You must then install the ntfs-3g package on your unRAID box. It will look something like ls -l /boot/packages/ntfs-3g-2010.3.6-i486-1.txz To see if the package was successfully downloaded type
#External hard drive read only ntfs download#
To download from the Linux command line type:
#External hard drive read only ntfs windows#
You can download the package from windows by clicking on the link above, or from the Linux command line after logging in as "root" To create a folder for downloaded packages type: As an example, version 2010.3.6 is used, so you must replace it with the actual package name you download. I made a folder on my flash drive for packages, downloaded the ntfs-3g package, and put it there. Additionally the "xz" program is now part of unRAID, so there is no need to download or install it. On newer versions of unRAID, you will not need to perform the steps to convert a. That's the easiest way to get read/write access to NTFS USB hard drives. To convert the downloaded ntfs-3g-2009.3.8-i486-1.txz file to a. Once you have the file, you must install it by typing To do that, you will need to download a new compression utility xz If you are running an older version of unRAID, a. Just be aware that the specific version in slackware-current changes as newer versions of Slackware are released.

Instead, we can use the newer NTFS-3G driver that has full NTFS capability and has been stable since February 2007. might want to include the new ntfs-3g module in an upcoming release. A read-only-capable drive is not too much help in this case, where I want to be able to move data to and from work, so we will NOT use the built-in module Tom supplied. In fact, unRAID comes with the ntfs loadable module that can read an NTFS file system, unfortunately, it is not able to properly write to NTFS file systems. In the past, Linux had partial support of NTFS file-systems. Get yourself an external USB enclosure, add a hard disk, and format it as NTFS. We can actually use any file system that unRAID understands, but FAT and FAT32 have file size limitations, and ReiserFS does not to my knowledge have a read/write driver available for windows. I use it for backups of some PCs, but let's say that is the data I want to move back and forth from home to work. I have an external USB enclosure with a hard disk that has an NTFS file system. Here is how I did it, without even rebooting the unRAID server, using an external USB enclosure on my array. If you want the files to be protected, copy the files to one of your array data drives for editing, and then back to the USB drive when done, for transport once the USB drive is unplugged. The NTFS drive is not used for parity, nor is it part of the unRAID array protected by the parity drive. This procedure to mount an NTFS drive to be visible through user-shares DOES NOT PROTECT THE CONTENTS OF THE NTFS DRIVE with your parity drive. It is very easy to add and remove an external USB drive to be visible in user-shares.
