Is the RPI also to power the external drive?
Use a powered USB hub instead.
Nope. The drive is powered from its own supply.

I am not able to mount a 4Tb NTFS GPT USB drive.
I followed an existing thread : LibreELEC - to no avail.
The NTFS is not dirty , drive was disconnected correctly and safely and I followed the advice in above thread to the letter.Still my problem seems to be different as I do not even have sda1 device:

I can not mount it as it seems that the volumes are not recognised only the drive.
The drive works fine under windows.
I am on Raspberry PI 3 using the latest (updated today) version.Is there an fdisk or something else available on this install?
Any advice?
