Problem
You can’t mount a NTFS partition using ntfs-3g and the error message states, that the partition is in an “unsafe state”.
Solution
Put the hard drives into a windows machine. In the power options set Sleep – Allow hybrid sleep to “Off”. Now shutdown the PC with the following command to perform a full shutdown:
shutdown /s /t 0
/s … shutdown
/t 0 … time out: 0 seconds
After that remove the hard drives, boot Windows again and restore the power options.
