i@pop-os:~$ sudo mount.ntfs-3g /dev/sdb /mnt/temp
NTFS signature is missing.
Failed to mount '/dev/sdb': Invalid argument
The device '/dev/sdb' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS.
Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a
partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around?
i@pop-os:~$ sudo mount.ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /mnt/temp
ntfs-3g: Failed to access volume '/dev/sdb1': No such file or directory
