NTFS Formatted Drives, Macs, and FTPii

So I just barely found out that you can't write to a NTFS formatted HD on a mac. There is a program I could use but since this isn't my mac I don't know the password, so I thought, I wonder if I could use a network file transfer. So I downloaded FTPii onto my SD, started FileZila on the mac, and bingo!
Sure it's slower than the HD to HD but as you read earlier I can't install admin stuff on this mac.
Anybody else come across this?

I'm transferring the whole English dubbed Death Note anime over to my HD. According to the calculations I made I'll be done around 12:30 AM MST. Soooooo slow. I'm on Episode 12 of 37. 25 to go. Just sitting on my Love Sac browsing the web and adding one episode to the queue as the previous one finishes. *sigh*

FTP is very slow, yes. Still, it's a good use of what you have.
