</div>Should be /dev/sd*...?<br>
Unless ubuntu does things differently. When you plug it in ru:<br>
sudo dmesg | tail<br>
<br>
This should tell you the location of your hardrive; be sure to mount the<br>
partition not the device eg.<br>
/dev/sdx1 not /dev/sx sdx is the device, sx1 is the file system with<br>
your data, or sx2 or whatever.<br>

</div>Shouldn't gnome mount it automatically for you? If not, do something<br>
like<br>
sudo mount -t ntfs device mmntpoint.<br>
<br>
man mount for more details.<br>
