What is NTFS?

It is the abbreviation of New Technology File System. NTFS is the standard file system of Windows NT, including its later versions Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8.

Advantages of NTFS, such as:

NTFS file and folder permissions: Using NTFS permissions we can control access to every file on an NTFS volume. We can configure permissions at each level of the directory structure to meet our needs for allowing and/or preventing access to files and folders.

The Encrypting File System: Using a public/private key pair, EFS provides strong cryptographic encryption of files and folders that is extremely resistant to attack and compromise.

File compression: The NTFS file system supports encryption on both files and folders. NTFS uses a lossless compression algorithm, which ensures that no data is lost when compressing and decompressing data.

Disk space quota management: Using disk quotas enables us to control the amount of data that users can store on the NTFS volumes. The disk quota system enables us to determine when users are nearing their limits and automatically prevent usage after a user has reached his defined quota limitation.

Volume mount: We can finally escape the 26 volume limit on a computer by using volume mount points.
