How to Mount a new drive on ubuntu

1. List my new drive  

sudo blkid /dev/sdb

You will see something similar with this:

/dev/sdb: LABEL=”NewHDD” UUID=”5d6c8f68-dcc8-4a91-a510-9bca2aa71521″ TYPE=”ext4″

2. Add the new hard disk on the fstab for auto mount after reset

sudo nano /etc/fstab

Add a new line at the bottom with the following content and Substitute the values of UUID and path with your own values in place of “5d6c8f68-dcc8-4a91-a510-9bca2aa71521” and “/mnt/NewHDD” respectively. Then, save the changes by pressing CTRL+X, followed by Y and ENTER.

/dev/disk/by-uuid/5d6c8f68-dcc8-4a91-a510-9bca2aa71521 /mnt/NewHDD auto nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show,x-gvfs-name=NewHDD 0 0

3. Mount the drive  

 sudo mount -a

if the result will be:

mount: /mnt/NewHDD: mount point does not exist.

You must create mount point sudo mkdir /mnt/NewHDD then use again: sudo mount -a

4. Change owner and group of the new hard disk using next command:

sudo chown user:user -R /mnt/NewHDD
