Two things come to mind here. One is that you should never use your email address in a post or user name in ANY forum or internet accessible format. Unless you desire to have all sorts of spam sent to you, at the very least. This one contains your name, which is a critical piece of information for someone to steal your identity.

The other is that you should not expect to write to an NTFS partition with Linux and expect flawless results. It may corrupt the partition and render it unreadable by almost any method. I would recommend using an external drive or partition formated to FAT32 and no larger than 32Gig. that would be the safest for the use you describe. Linux can read NTFS, but is not reliable nor recommended to write to such partitions. There have been claims to the contrary and there are people that still believe that smoking cigarettes has nothing to do with lung cancer.

Good luck!
