Mount Additional Drive in Debian Linux

First look for the drive that you want to mount:

1
$ sudo lsblk

Look for UUID, make sure you replace the name with the one you found using the above:

1
$ sudo blkid /dev/sdNAME

Make an empty folder located at /foldername if one didn’t already exist… if one does exist it needs to be an empty folder.

1
$ sudo mkdir /foldername

Finally, add the following to /etc/fstab:

1
2
# Mount my SSHD
UUID=0AED64E911A2FB1E /foldername ntfs defaults 0 2

Save the file and make sure the partition/drive isn’t already mounted previously, then type:

1
sudo mount -a
