    Thinking it is related to this Windows 10 Fall Creators Update Breaks NTFS 64K Allocation Size Disks - Microsoft Community


    Both of my drives are 64k cluster as well. I will try to get access to a windows 7 pc later and run chkdsk on there to see if that fixes it. Otherwise I'll just reformat as ext4 I guess.

    Edit: just ran chkdsk and safely removed on my laptop running Windows 10 non-creators version and that fixed the issue. This is definitely a problem with windows 10 creators update. Seems like just connecting any NTFS drive (maybe only with 64k cluster size) to a creators update PC "breaks" the drive for any 3rd party ntfs systems.

    Having trouble with two external USB hard drives. Both are formatted NTFS GPT. Both of these drives used to work fine with my setup (asus chromebox running 8.2.1). They are directly connected to the rear USB ports. I recently had them connected to my windows pc for a bit to move some files around. Now that the drives are connected to the chromebox again, they no longer mount. I have tried safely removing from windows, disabling the fast startup power option, even dismounting with the diskpart utility.

    When I try to mount it I get:

    Code
    LibreELEC:~ # mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb2 /var/media
    mount: mounting /dev/sdb2 on /var/media failed: No such device

    Here's the output of blkid, sdb2 and sdc1 are the drives.

    Code
    LibreELEC:~ # blkid
    /dev/sda1: LABEL="System" UUID="58F5-65E2" TYPE="vfat" PARTLABEL="primary" PARTUUID="84674f76-b1c3-447a-b850-b169feeaf835"
    /dev/sda2: LABEL="Storage" UUID="5e3e178b-9301-4d87-aa20-fb9f0753b5e8" TYPE="ext4" PARTLABEL="primary" PARTUUID="124f1675-8044-4ea4-938b-661e05f580a6"
    /dev/sdb2: LABEL="Zoltan" UUID="9AAA1647AA161FF5" TYPE="ntfs" PARTLABEL="Basic data partition" PARTUUID="e559037d-372d-46fc-b12d-60d34749aef0"

    /dev/sdb1: PARTLABEL="Microsoft reserved partition" PARTUUID="73bb2259-f3df-4103-94cb-4748d55a2fc7"

    And the output of mount

    and dmesg

    Also noticed that if I unplug the drive from the chromebox while libreelec/kodi is running, a popup notification shows saying the drive was removed.


    Any ideas? Thanks
