Scenario
Microsoft NTFS for Mac by Paragon. Paragon NTFS for Mac is the only NTFS driver on the market that provides full read/write NTFS access with the same high speed as native HFS + files. Also, it is the first NTFS driver to support Snow Leopard 32 and 64-bit modes. If you mount an NTFS drive with Paragon NTFS for Mac disabled, the drive will become a read-only volume, and you will need to remount it again after enabling the driver. This ‘feature’ aims to act as an emergency exit for worst-case scenarios, such as having an opened file with changes while the driver is disabled for some reason.
After installing NTFS for Mac OS X and rebooting it is not possible to mount NTFS partition.

1. File system errors
After using NTFS drive in Windows you have detached it without removing it safely. Therefore NTFS journal has not been emptied from temporary streams.
To fix the problem, open Disk Utility under Mac OS X. You will find it in Applications – Utilities.
Choose NTFS partition on the left and find First Aid tab on the right. Under this tab you will find Verify Disk option. Run Verify and then Repair.

In most cases Verify will show a note “Native NTFS journal is not empty”. If there is no such message but other file system errors have been detected by Verify, still please run Repair.
Please take screen shots of Verify and Repair outupt just in case.
Now please detach hard disk from your computer, and then connect it back. Now NTFS volumes should be automatically mounted.
It is important:

- Even if disk is not visible in Finder, it will still be displayed in Disk Utility.
- Verify and Repair options are available only if Paragon NTFS for Mac is turned on in System Preferences
“NTFS journal is not empty” error may appear on the drive if it wasn’t safely removed in Windows. Please always use “Safe remove” when you finish work with NTFS drive in Windows.
2. Product not activated
Please check whether driver has been activated:
Open System Preferences panel – NTFS for Mac OS X – Info
Check whether Product Key and Serial Number have been entered in respective fields and online activation has been successfully completed.

I'm getting a new PC Slave, Currently been using a single Mac. So my samples all reside on a Mac formatted SSD drive.
But I still want to be able to move the drive to my MacBook Pro when I'm mobile.
So should I format the sample drive as NTFS and then use Paragon NTFS on my Mac's to access the samples?
Or should I rather keep it as a Mac formatted drive and use MacDrive on the PC to use the Sample Drive.
I suppose if I format it as NTFS my Mac will still be able to read it without Paragon NTFS, but I will still need to sometimes move and create folders.
Trying to figure out the best solution working between both OS's
