I would like to share the following FAQ (the www.tuxera.com).
Obviously, it is an invitation to consider it an open-debate for those who interested and use ntfs formatting drives.
-boot managers (FreeBSD Handbook; cap. 12)
-partitioners (differences between gpart and Linux GParted)
-security software (https://www.freebsd.org/security/)
-recovery software (for those who use recovery software and have observed how, when lauched, some of them change the permissions)
-hardware fault (related to the FreeBSD hardware fault policies).
Have you a nice day.
Bye !

Can NTFS-3G corrupt the Master Boot Record (MBR) or the partition table?
Both the MBR and the partition table are outside of the NTFS disk area. This means that those disk areas are not visible and not accessible to the driver. Moreover NTFS-3G doesn’t need either information to function. It doesn’t read, write or modify any of them. In fact, the operating system doesn’t even let NTFS-3G to access those disk areas.The MBR and the partition table are typically modified (corrupted) by boot managers, partitioners, security software, recovery software, viruses and other malwares, or some hardware fault.
