Should i just go with the built in kernel support or use fuse+ntfs3g - i already have the userland option compiled into the kernel so im ready to go on the fuse option if required.

Thanks

If you need read-only support, use the in-kernel driver.

If you are concerned about the driver being open, use the in-kernel driver.

If you need read-write support, ntfs3g is *the only* choice. The in-kernel driver has an extremely limited support for writing to ntfs volumes.
