rw is a boolean flag. Set it to true if you want to test if the volume can be mounted read-write. Set it to false if you want to test if the volume can be mounted read-only.

The return value is an integer which @0 if the operation would succeed, or some non-zero value documented in the ntfs-3g.probe(8) manual page.

This function depends on the feature "ntfs3g". See also feature_available.
