Q: will mountain lion read/write to an NTFS external hard drive?

hi, I am looking at purchasing a new MacBook Pro and I currently have an external hard drive which I use quite a lot with my Windows pc and it is formatted to NTFS and I wanted to know whether Mountain Lion will be able to read and write to this hard drive.

 

thanks

OS X Mountain Lion

    I did all you suggested and then tried the sudo echo again. All seemed okay but i stiil could not write on my hard drive even after i unmounted and mounted with Disk Utility. So i decided to restart my computer to see if it would work but it didnt.

     

    I also tried the sudo echo command again but kept getting the permission denied message. Also, when i try the sudo less command again, I get a 'no such file or directory' message
