Ubuntu – Not mounting/finding 1TB NTFS drive

10.10filesystemntfswindows 7

I am having trouble with Ubuntu recognizing/finding/mounting one of my hard drives. I dual boot Ubuntu and Windows 7. I had Ubuntu 10.04 and all drives showed up under "Places" I could click on any of my Windows/NTFS drives and they would mount as they should. I have since updated to Ubuntu 10.10. One of my drives no longer shows up in "Places" or in Nautilus. I can open gparted and it is listed there, but if I try to click the mount button, I get an error.

I am currently at work and can not post any screenshots or errors, but will happily do so later. I was just hoping that someone might be able to give me something to try when I get home.

250gig SATA hard drive (Windows7/NTFS) – recognized/mountable
200gig PATA hard drive (Ubuntu 10.10) – recognized (obviously)
1TB SATA hard drive (NTFS) – not recognized/won't mount

Thanks!

You can try installing the package ntfs-config to see if it is detected and if it is, than you can use that tool to configure it.
