Mount NTFS Drive

sudo apt update
sudo apt install ntfs-3g

sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /mnt/myntfs
sudo umount /mnt/myntfs
# Troubleshoot when not mounting
ntfsfix /dev/sdd2

Auto mount on reboot

Using 'fstab'

• use exfat-fuse instead of ntfs if the drive is not ntfs
• get UUID by blkid /dev/sddX

# /etc/fstab
UUID="<FE1A9E921A9E4793 REPLACE THIS>" /mnt/new-mount-path ntfs defaults,x-systemd.automount 0 0

mount -a to apply fstab which is filesystem table
