File sharing and backups

[JaggedAce]

Just wondering if there are any good alternatives to Paragon NTFS for Mac, HFS+ for MAC and also Carbon Copy?
Free would be preferable but don't mind paying if it really is worth the money

Ideally I would like to have files on my third HDD and have them be accessible from both both Yosemite and Windows 10 and also keep backups on that drive as well.

Are there better options or a better solution to sharing files?
