largely rhetorical questions for your consideration:

do you have the packages installed to mount/read ntfs? Maybe this is why
you can't see it in gnome-disks and lsblk. I can't remember for sure if
lsblk shows unmounted devices or devices with unrecognized filesystems,
but i want to say "not".

does "blkid" (as root/via sudo) list the disk?

maybe you can use smartctl on the disk and see if it's failing?
