hi guys & gals

bought an external usb3 disk, Western Digital 3 Tera-bytes.
my Ubuntu try's to automatically mount on /media/david
(david is my user name) which is the standard mount point
for all of the other external disks i have tried successfully
(Toshiba, Seagate).

The error code is "unknown filesystem type "exfat".

I found it by looking at the "My Book" dir under the /media dir using the
"Files" app.

i'll certainly go the wd web site unless you guys have a remedy.

david
