Paragon Software has updated NTFS for the Mac (http://www.paragon-software.com/home/ntfs-mac/) to version 8.0. The upgrade is purportedly the first NTSF driver to support Mac OS X 10.6 (“Snow Leopard”) in both 32-bit and 64-bit modes.

The purpose of NTFS for Mac OS X is to provide rapid reading and writing data to NTFS volumes under Mac OS. It comes in a single edition that includes a standard DMG disk image containing the installation package.

NTFS for the Mac costs US$39.95. NTFS for Mac OS X requires Mac OS X 10.4.6 or higher.
