Hello.

I've been able to run my stable hackintosh for a good month for now. Everything is working like it should except this one annoying thing. My hackintosh drive keeps corrupting and I am unable to get it back to a working state.

I am dualbooting windows 10 and os x 10.11.4 with 2 samsung ssd. 500GB samsung evo 840 for windows and 250GB samsung SSD 850 evo for hackintosh. Windows drive is fine. Hackintosh drive on the otherhand keeps corrupting at least once a month, which i believe isn't normal. Today it happened again, but this time first aid did not have any effect to it. Disk utility says that "Disk verify or repair failed"
I am running out of options here. I don't understand what could possibly make it fail so often.

I attached pictures of the errors. Theres alot more but i unable to provide anymore. These are from the start and from the end.

thank you in advance and please let me know if you need more information from me.

Are you using software on Windows that allows you to read/write HFS+ volumes?

Yes actually. Paragon hfs software to share files between windows and os x.

Now you know why your HFS+ volume(s) are constantly corrupted.

Well that is disappointing.. what way do you recommend to share files between windows and OS X?

FAT32 or network shares.

You can use the HFS+J drivers from Apple's BootCamp in Windows for readonly access.
And Apple provides NTFS readonly access in OS X.

well FAT32 isn't an option for me because of its 4GB file size limit. I do have a NAS drive but its transfer speed is killing me..

Ended up installing bootcamp drivers. Can be marked as solved.
 
This is NOT solved. RehabMan has given no reason why Paragon HFS+ for Windows should not work. Please explain why that software does not work with dual booting Hackintoshes.
