Thank you for your reply. I tried to give the mount command but got back some errors, here is the detail [root at Production mnt]# mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usbdrive FATAL: Module fuse not found. Error reading bootsector: Input/output error Failed to mount '/dev/sdb1': Input/output error NTFS is either inconsistent, or there is a hardware fault, or it's a SoftRAID/FakeRAID hardware. In the first case run chkdsk /f on Windows then reboot into Windows twice. The usage of the /f parameter is very important! If the device is a SoftRAID/FakeRAID then first activate it and mount a different device under the /dev/mapper/ directory, (e.g. /dev/mapper/nvidia_eahaabcc1). Please see the 'dmraid' documentation for more details. Thanks.
