After installing Bazzite this morning, everything is working great except that my hard drives (2x 4 TB) are not showing up.

I previously used them on Windows for my media and plex server (which I still have dual booted while I get my bearings on Linux), but they’re not showing in Linux.

Any ideas?

    This is not correct.

    The Linux kernel has had support for the NTFS file system since 2021. The issues detailed in the article you linked to explicitly refer to issues with Proton and Steam, which require characters that are illegal in the NTFS specification and symbolic links, which the spec does not support.

    Sure, you may bump up against these limitations in other apps, but it is a hard crash in Steam and Lutris, which is why the distro has the article.
