    You will need the packages exfat-fuse and exfat-utils to allow you to read and write on exFAT drives:

    For 14.04 and higher:

    sudo apt-get install exfat-fuse exfat-utils

    Afterwards you just need to plug in the HDD and you're good to go.

  2. 13.10 and later

    You will need the exfat-fuse and exfat-utils packages. Install them with: 

    sudo apt-get install exfat-fuse exfat-utils

    Your exFAT formatted drives should now (auto) mount fine.
