NTFS
NTFS New Technology File System1 is a proprietary file system developed by Microsoft1 Starting with Windows NT 31, it is the default file system of Windows NT family7
NTFS has several technical improvements over FAT and HPFS High Performance File System, the file systems that it superseded, such as improved support for metadata, and the use of advanced data structures to improve performance, reliability, and disk space utilization, plus additional extensions, such as security access control lists ACL and file system journaling
Mac OS X kernels also have a limited ability to read NTFS as well as limited built-in write support, although this is not enabled by default; Linux and BSD kernels have a free and open-source driver for the NTFS filesystem with both read and write functionality
