Recently, I bought a new laptop HP G6 2010ax 6GB RAM AMD A8 1.9 GHz 1 TB HDD.
First of all, since this is the firs time I am using an OS other than Windows, I must say that somehow I managed to install LM14 on my notebook. However, beyond that I am not able to move any further.
Whenever I try to click the 1 TB icon in Computer, it says –
Unable to mount location. Can’t mount file.
Also my mts mblaze datacard is not working with this notebook.
really confusing ..i am sometimes unable to mount iso on my ubuntu too
You have to mount properly ...
If u r not familiar with commands then ,
Use Ubuntu , go to software center -> search PySDM then install....
It's because you have to be root when you want to mount a drive,
then you can mount the drive through command ( terminal ) or use Nautilus
Good cable connection, else OS will hang

Search Linux Mint's forums to get yourself the drivers required for the Hard drive. Also, format it with Linux or use a NTFS driver...
Second problem indicates card reader requires a driver. I assume the HDD is an external drive. Does it use USB or eSATA connection? Is the drive formatted in NTFS? If so Linux won't read it unless NTFS-3G driver is installed.
Latest version of linux ( fedora , ubuntu , mint ) has no problems reading NTFS formatted drives
Either the hard disk is dead,or you need drivers.
