mount: bad usage
Try 'mount --help' for more information.
soma@soma-B85M-D3H:~$I also tried

CODE] soma@soma-B85M-D3H:~$ sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb1 /media
$MFTMirr does not match $MFT (record 0).
Failed to mount '/dev/sdb1': Input/output error
NTFS is either inconsistent, or there is a hardware fault, or it's a
SoftRAID/FakeRAID hardware. In the first case run chkdsk /f on Windows
then reboot into Windows twice. The usage of the /f parameter is very
important! If the device is a SoftRAID/FakeRAID then first activate
it and mount a different device under the /dev/mapper/ directory, (e.g.
/dev/mapper/nvidia_eahaabcc1). Please see the 'dmraid' documentation
for more details.[/CODE]

I am feeling helpless. Please guide me what to do.latest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA latest?i=dBTRZ0w3m1o:ZJyYxBf9h1A:F7zBnMy latest?i=dBTRZ0w3m1o:ZJyYxBf9h1A:V_sGLiP latest?d=qj6IDK7rITs latest?i=dBTRZ0w3m1o:ZJyYxBf9h1A:gIN9vFwdBTRZ0w3m1o
