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?

Currently, only 1 or 2 FATs are supported, not 251.

Provided that you have ntfs-3g installed, the fsck for ntfs is called ntfsck instead of fsck.ntfs .  No, I don't know why there isn't a symlink from fsck.ntfs to ntfsck.  And yes, running fsck.vfat on an NTFS partition will give you some wonky error messages.
