Hi, there is way

How to enable built-in support for writing to NTFS, once and forever.

1. Open terminal and type this command
sudo mv /sbin/mount_ntfs /sbin/mount_ntfs.orig

2. Then open file mount_ntfs with nano editor by typing this command
sudo nano /sbin/mount_ntfs

3. Now enter these 2 lines of text
#!/bin/sh
/sbin/mount_ntfs.orig -o rw "$@"


4. Press Control + X then Y and Enter for Exit and Save!

5. Type these 2 commands
sudo chown root:wheel /sbin/mount_ntfs
sudo chmod 755 /sbin/mount_ntfs


Congratz! Now, any NTFS disk connected to your Mac is writable.
