Not while maintaining data.



2) Do I even need to do this (i.e., do any of the CentOS/Linux kernels
support read AND write to NTFS)?

No, and NTFS writes are not something I'd consider a good idea.

Latest NTFS for Linux claims to be completely safe, it uses Microsoft drivers. Presumably it gets it from your copy of Windows, but I've not needed to find out.

needs fuser - filesystem in user space.
