Using NTFS on linux and windows is cool. I have consistently seen that
when there are large number of files, undoubtably,
ntfs volume goes corrupt and chkdsk simply removes files and creates
data loss. I do not have any clue on when the FS goes
corrupt (either when writing using linux or when using in windows - Used
ntfs (kernel), ntfs-3g ... all in vain).
I have never had a corrupted NTFS partition from using it with ntfs-3g.
I've been using the setup I described above for years now, and the NTFS
partitions are used intensively on both Windows and Linux as download
partitions (usenet, torrents, etc).
I think this is the near best solution. This is the 3rd time I am
trying to capture all data (around 10,000 files)
from my linux box into the luks ntfs partition. Everything works
fine. There is no file corruption. But it all
starts to cruble the moment you use chkdsk. Chkdsk starts deleting
lots of files and says they are corrupt
and then on the next run it salvages files saying they are orphaned.
I have used ntfs (the ntfs-3g package, not the kernel ntfs drivers -
there is a difference), and I have never had any problems - that weren't
media related - faulty sector....
are you sure your use the fuse package, and doing a proper umount ?
