[QUOTE="Aqua, post: 1338159, member: 37545"] I think for clarity, the only thing you can do with an ntfs drive on a mac is take a copy of the file itself (so you will always have the original). You will be able to do whatever you like with it once it's on the mac except write a copy of it onto the ntfs drive. That being said, you could write it back to (I think) using virtualization such as Parallels, VMFusion or VBox(? - freeware). Given Vbox is free you could try it and see.
