Unable to mount Elements(external HD) [duplicate]

  • 772

I have inserted my MD Elements Hard Drive.I can not mount it,this is the first time that I have a problem like this.

Error mounting /dev/sdc1 at /media/milenko/Elements: Command-line `mount -t "ntfs" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000" "/dev/sdc1" "/media/milenko/Elements"' exited with non-zero exit status 13: $MFTMirr does not match $MFT (record 0)

I am confused with this.What does MFTMirr stand for? How to solve this?

mount hard-drive

    This answer appears to answer your question. In general it's best to use Windows to fix errors on NTFS hard drives.

    But because it is NTFS, the only way to truly repair NTFS is Windows' chkdsk utility. (There is a ntfsfix command, but it is NOT going to be of the same quality of fix as Windows' utilities to check NTFS disks).

    My personal experience aligns with this.
