Mounting drive in Ubuntu after reboot - error












0















I am trying to mount a 4TB drive on an ubuntu box and trying various things to mount it after a reboot. This is what my lsblk looks like.



xxx@ubuntu:~$ lsblk

I have tried:



sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb1 /data
NTFS signature is missing.
Failed to mount '/dev/sdb1': Invalid argument
The device '/dev/sdb1' 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?


I have also tried



sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb /data
NTFS signature is missing.
Failed to mount '/dev/sdb': Invalid argument
The device '/dev/sdb' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS.
Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a

The error message that it's not a valid NTFS doesn't make sense since it was working fine until the reboot.



I have tried several of the suggestions on AskUbuntu and Superuser to no luck.
I am at a loss and way out of my league here, could someone help what I could be doing wrong.

          Try



          file -s /dev/sdb1 


          for see how (or if ...) the system detects the filesystem. Also, you should consider connecting it on a Windows machine and try running a checkdisk on the volume.
