Guys, all the while I can read/write in my 3rd HDD which is under NTFS

fdisk -l

The problem happened after my last 2 updates, I am not able to see any contents in my both NTFS partition /dev/sdc1 (windows 7) and /dev/sda1 (additional HDD name as Storage) even both mounted with no problem. I am getting my windows partition (/dev/sdc1) to be readable again after I edited in fstab.

/etc/fstab

/dev/sda1	/media/Storage	ntfs-3g	defaults,locale=en_US.UTF-8	0	0
/dev/sdc1	/windows/c	ntfs-3g	defaults,locale=en_US.UTF-8	0	0

I am successfully read all the folders in my /dev/sdc1 after reboot but not in the /dev/sda1 as it will read as 0B. The temporary action is, deleted the entry for /dev/sda1 and I a getting all my contents back in media/Storage intact without any problem but after next reboot all the contents will be missing again.

Currently on tumbleweed KDE x86_64 - 3.0.6-44-desktop.

Thank you.

Solved this by using the new path for /dev/sda1 /windows/Storage. Case closed

Inside Yast at System you have Partitioner. You can use it to make the ntfs partition/s visible and of course you can set to be mounted at system boot :slight_smile:
