can't find one of my hard drives on newly installed linux mint












0















I just installed linux mint alongside windows and I can't seem to find one of the 3 hard drives. Two of them (sda and sdc) are available under /media/<username>/<drivename> , but the third one is not there. I can access it when booting to windows. and I can see it when I run this command on linux:



$ lsblk -dio KNAME,TYPE,SIZE,MODEL
KNAME TYPE SIZE MODEL
sda disk 1.8T WDC WD2003FYYS-7
sdb disk 931.5G WDC WD10EZEX-08W
sdc disk 149.1G WDC WD1600JD-00G
sr0 rom 1024M DRW-2014L1T


it is the second one in the list.



How do I find it in the file system?
Thanks!



UPDATE: When running lsblk alone thats what I get:

          If you type just



          lsblk


          without any options it will tell you if your disk is partitioned, formatted, mounted



          you can use gparted to format it.... gparted will also list what file systems are supported (you may need to install ntfs)
