When I connect my WD My Passport 1TB drive, it doesn't automatically mount. However, it is detected. I can see it using sudo fdisk -l
, and even mount it manually using
sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/hooda/ext
But having to mount it manually every time I connect is rather irritating. Why isn't Ubuntu automatically mounting it? All other HDDs/USB disks are being mounted. I'm using 14.10.
Edit:There's only a single partition
Partition FileSystem Label Size Used Unused Flags
/dev/sdb1 ntfs Hooda V2 931.48 GiB 808.70 GiB 122.78 GiB
There's nothing super-critical on it, but of course I wouldn't want to lose 800GB worth of data. The drive works on Windows.
