Nice to know you have volunteered to do the test. I have some ideas for tests:

How about multiple writings, like in a torrent. Try to find a torrent that downloads a directory.

Maybe run a browser in that partition. Download the official binary of firefox and run it in that partition while you're using the torrent. Surf the net for a while. ie: Go to google images so it caches lots of pics. install extensions, etc.

If these test are positives, we will be enable to share a firefox's profile in win and linux


PD: Tell us about this ntfs-3g. did you apt-get it or you installed from source?
