Cannot mount NTFS external drive

New Ubuntu Server install 20.04, for Plex Media Server (not yet installed). Popped in a USB NTFS drive which works on other machines. It has media on it which I need Plex to server. #

Attempts to mount it via fstab are not working and I cannot see any files.

blkid gives me

/dev/sdd1: LABEL="EXT-2TB" UUID="B8FCAECDFCAE84EA" TYPE="ntfs" PARTUUID="a6928458-01"

Note UUID looks a bit shorter than I'd expect. The drive is readable on other machines.

fdisk -l gives me

Disk /dev/sdd: 1.84 TiB, 2000398933504 bytes, 3907029167 sectorsDisk model: BUP Slim BL     Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytesSector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytesI/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytesDisklabel type: dosDisk identifier: 0xa6928458Device     Boot Start        End    Sectors  Size Id Type/dev/sdd1        2048 3907026943 3907024896  1.8T  7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT

My fstab is below

UUID=B8FCAECDFCAE84EA /media/nftsdrive ntfs-3g permissions, defaults, 0 0

This guidance suggests using 'auto' in the options (not 'defaults') but I understand 'defaults' includes this. Even if I replace defaults with auto, I get same issue.

df reports :-

/dev/sdd1                         1953512444 1917872564  35639880  99% /media/nftsdrive

but sudo ls /media/ntfsdrive reports nothing, as if no files are there.

All the guide say I need fstab to have 'permissions' because I then need to install plex and allow the plex user access using commands like chown.

Any clues?
