Anyway, problem solved for the moment, but still open for suggestions. Ah, yes I can now see there is a commercial upgrade available. The free version (download from Apple) is working fine for me (when I correctly unmount the drive from Windows). I may look at the commercial version, though, as it is meant to have performance enhancements. I did some testing and the commercial version is significantly faster, at least for writing.

I use Windows 10, and was given a 1tb WD My Passport external hard drive. The light on the hard drive comes on when I plug it in, but my computer can't detect the hard drive. WD is also selling a version that is specifically formatted for Mac users, WD My Passport for Mac. Though it really doesn. In addition, users can use the Dropbox compatibility if they want to save.

I tested copying a larg file (20GB) from the internal drive to an external disk with NTFS over FW800 and it took up to 4 times longer with NTFS-3G than with the trial version from Tuxera. Similarly, copying 100 files totalling 1.2GB was around 3 times longer with NTFS-3G.
