    **Welcome to the Ask Ubuntu community.** To help in troubleshooting your issue, please edit your question to include the version of the Ubuntu OS that you're running. That said, and looking at the image you provided, I see an error _"wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb, missing codepage or helper program, or other error."_ I would suspect that this is your issue. You may want to confirm the error and reformat this device. – richbl Jun 13 '23 at 13:14

    You should normally create one or more partitions on the drive, and create a file system in each partition, and mount them. Please try [again] to create a partition and file system. The partitions will be seen as devices `/dev/sdx1`, `/dev/sdx2` ... where x is a letter, for example `b`. – sudodus Jun 13 '23 at 13:47
  • yeah, that was it. i partitioned it with gparted. so many steps that it's just a couple of clicks on Windows, gd. – fede Jun 13 '23 at 14:40
