Use ntfs3 with Ubuntu

# 1. Make sure APT can see the security & updates pockets
sudo apt update

# 2. Pull in the extra module bundle that matches the running kernel
sudo apt install linux-modules-extra-$(uname -r)

# 3. Load the driver and confirm it registered
sudo modprobe ntfs3
cat /proc/filesystems | grep ntfs3        # → should print "ntfs3"

Mount

sudo mount -t ntfs3 /dev/nvme0n4p2 /mnt/sgdtwo

To mount automatically with fstab

# Replace the 1002 with getting id from

id -u

nano /etc/fstab

UUID=4dd042ad89a2hsa5   /mnt/sgdtwo   ntfs3   rw,uid=1002,gid=1002,iocharset=utf8,windows_names,nofail,auto   0   0

Save, exit, then test the line before rebooting, if it doesn’t work remove/comment the line from /etc/fstab
