Access to hard drives-(RESOLVED)

Good morning, I installed Arch Linux, but how do I make my other hard drives appear, so that I can access them, they are with NTFS partition. I appreciate the help.

Re: Access to hard drives-(RESOLVED)

If you are ok with read-only access to those drives, just use the mount command.

Incase you want read/write access you'll need to install ntfs-3g , see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NTFS-3G

jplayarch, I think you meant to "reply" with this but hit "report" instead:

Good afternoon, I came back to thank you for your help, with your tips I managed to make Arch Linux recognize the other hard drives on NTFS. Thank you!!!
