Centos by default does not support ntfs which can be added very easly.
How to mount an NTFS Filesystem
Required Packages
Make sure you have the rpmforge repo installed.
Install the following packages.
yum install fuse fuse-ntfs-3g
If the rpmforge repo is disabled by default,
yum --enablerepo=rpmforge install fuse fuse-ntfs-3g
It may be for a drive internal drive like Western Digital WD Red 4TB, WD40EFRX or an external drive that is formatted in NTFS like this one Western Digital WD Elements 1TB
Mounting an NTFS filesystem
Suppose your ntfs filesystem is /dev/sde1 and you are going to mount it on /mnt/ntfsdrive, do the following.
First, create a mount point.
mkdir /mnt/nftsdrive
Next, edit /etc/fstab as follows. To mount read-only:
/dev/sde1 /mnt/ntfsdrive ntfs-3g ro,umask=0222,defaults 0 0
To mount read-write:
/dev/sde1 /mnt/ntfsdrive ntfs-3g rw,umask=0000,defaults 0 0
You can now mount it by running:
mount /mnt/nftsdrive
