[QUOTE="pincrete, post: 1534207, member: 307512"] OK guys apologies & thanks to all, & apologies to Paragon for questioning NTFS for Mac. I have to admit that the end of this story is the last place I thought to look (always the way?) ... In the end by swapping various hard drives in various cases, it turns out that the fault lay NOT with any hard drive.. NOT with software .. NOT with anything I was doing wrong, but simply with the external HD case (bought separately from the HDD). Since it's a USB 3.0 case and since it's an oversized hard disk (12.5mm), it's probably not worth the effort of trying to find a replacement case, so I will just have to live with the 'double-mount' technique to get the hard drive to be writable on my Mac, (strangely it's fairly fast once mounted, especially on PCs, where I have USB 3.0). Ooops ..... problem understood and worked around, if not solved. Thanks to all & I'm posting thing in case someone else encounters the same problem. [/QUOTE]
