I need some help getting my internal 1TB HDD mounted in Mint. I just installed Mint 21 x64 with Cinnamon in a multiboot system. Linux Mint boots fine and mounts the two other SSD drives I have. The 1TB HDD is seen but is not mounted. It is a NTFS disk. Below is what is shown with parted -l. The red section is the disk that doesn't mount which is dev/sdb 1000GB disk. It mounts fine when I boot into Windows and also mounts fine in Ubuntu 20.04. I've searched forums and internet to find a similar issue, but have not found anything. I have Windows quick boot off. I also see in the "Disks" application as well as "Parted" reports the partition table as "LOOP". Not sure why that is. Is there something somebody can guide me to do to get this drive mounted in Mint 21?
I previously had Ubuntu 18.04 and decided to install Mint 21 over it. Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04 as well as Windows 10 have had no issues reading and writing to the 1TB drive. The three bootable Operating Systems I have are each on separate physical disks. The 1TB disk is strictly a data disk and no OS is installed on it. I have Mint 21, Windows 10 and Ubuntu 20.04 currently. Windows 10 and Ubuntu 20.04 continue to mount and work with the 1TB drive without issue.
I've also tried using
sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sdb /mnt/NTFS1TB
it returns the message ntfs-3g-mount: failed to access mountpoint /mnt/NTFS1TB: No such file or directory.
Any help or something to try would be appreciated.
