ntfs I guess?

Error : Failed to mount Windows Volume

You could use the search function of the forum, as this has been explained and ‘solved’ multiple times. The gist is that its a new kernel module thats become the default, but in many cases, such as your own, it does not seem to function as expected. Blacklisting the new module and using the legacy ntfs-3g is reverting to the previous method. EDIT I didnt pay much attention to the error itself … see the post below

Theres more than a few;

Hi @Calvin1,

Could you please provide the output of these commands?:

lsblk
cat /etc/fstab

Does your 500gb happen to be formatted as NTFS?

If it is, try:

sudo pacman -S ntfs-3g
echo 'blacklist ntfs3' | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/disable-ntfs3.conf
