  • Thanks for your reply. So you're saying the default permissions is all write permissions are enabled? The 222 disables all write permissions? My understanding is that Linux can't write to NTFS, but can write to NTFS-3g. It would make sense, then, to block writing in the case of NTSF but not NTFS-3g. Commented Sep 15, 2015 at 1:07
  • The difference between ntfs and ntfs-3g fs drivers: superuser.com/questions/139452/kernel-ntfs-driver-vs-ntfs-3g (But a bit dated, as by now perhaps Linux-NTFS driver has been enhanced?) Commented Sep 12, 2016 at 19:32
