The Tuxera NTFS performed terribly in respect of loading speed, hence, we'd say it is not suitable for storing Eagle Library.įrom the test, it is evident that there's a huge performance gap between mac's native disk format(Mac OS Extended) and the Tuxera NTFS, whether in terms of simple file copy with Finder or in terms of loading thumbnails within Eagle UI, in the worst-case tested as above, the Tuxera NTFS can only run the drive at 21.1% of its original speed.
