Bummer... that didn't work: $ sudo ntfsck /dev/sdc Boot sector: Bad jump. Boot sector: Bad NTFS magic. sectors_per_cluster (216) is not a power of 2. Attribute (0xbd58c437) is larger than FILE record at offset 21297264072 (0x4f56a75c8). Loading $MFT runlist failed. Trying $MFTMirr. Failed to read file record at offset -6121729999247507456 (0xab0b3f0000000000). Loading $MFTMirr runlist failed too. Aborting. NTFS signature is missing. So should I just format it as FAT?
