NTFS (New Technology File System) is a file system format commonly used in Windows operating systems. While CentOS 7 primarily uses the ext4 file system, you may need to access NTFS-formatted drives for data exchange between CentOS and Windows systems. Fortunately, CentOS provides tools to enable this capability, making it easy to mount NTFS drives within your CentOS environment.
