Syneon Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 I have been at this all morning and I cannot figure out what is going on. I current have 1 drive added to the array (4tb) and a 500gb cache drive. I have a drive that is from a Windows 10 machine that I want to copy the contents to the drive already in the array. I am having great difficultly getting that drive to mount. I have been all up and down any forum thread I could find and it seems ntfs-3g is needed for drives >2tb, but it is still not cooperating with my drive. Here is the output from some various commands I have seen mentioned in other threads. Anything jumping out to anyone? mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdc1 /mnt/dataimport -o umask=111,dmask=000 -v NTFS signature is missing. Failed to mount '/dev/sdc1': Invalid argument The device '/dev/sdc1' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS. Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around? gdisk -l /dev/sdc GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 0.8.7 Partition table scan: MBR: protective BSD: not present APM: not present GPT: present Found valid GPT with protective MBR; using GPT. Disk /dev/sdc: 7814037168 sectors, 3.6 TiB Logical sector size: 512 bytes Disk identifier (GUID): 6B562ADC-663B-4069-9182-C40D75D9DFB9 Partition table holds up to 128 entries First usable sector is 34, last usable sector is 7814037134 Partitions will be aligned on 64-sector boundaries Total free space is 30 sectors (15.0 KiB) fdisk -l|grep NTFS WARNING: GPT (GUID Partition Table) detected on '/dev/sdc'! The util fdisk doesn't support GPT. Use GNU Parted. sdc is the drive I want to mount outside the array. sdd is the one currently mounted. cat /proc/partitions major minor #blocks name 7 0 52428800 loop0 8 0 30031250 sda 8 1 30031234 sda1 8 16 488386584 sdb 8 17 488386552 sdb1 8 32 3907018584 sdc 8 33 3907018535 sdc1 8 48 3907018584 sdd 8 49 3907018535 sdd1 9 1 3907018532 md1 I also attempted to install the unassigned devices plugin, but the mount button is dithered. Hopefully this is enough information. I am missing a key piece here and I cannot figure out what it is. Let me know if anything else is needed. Link to comment
