I've installed Ubuntu 16.04 on a Windows 10 machine which had two Western Digital 1 TB HDD attached. Win 10 was installed on an SSD.
While installing Ubuntu I unplugged both HDDs and formatted the SSD.
Upon starting Ubuntu everything works fine except that only one HDD is automatically mounted. Fine, I'll mount the other one manually:

Partition 1 does not start on physical sector boundary.
/dev/sdb is the SSD where Ubuntu is installed.
/dev/sdc is the HDD which Ubuntu automatically mounts and works fine.
/dev/sda is the other HDD I'm unable to mount.
Code:
david@denna:~$ sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /mnt
NTFS signature is missing.
Failed to mount '/dev/sda1': Invalid argument
The device '/dev/sda1' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS.
Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a
partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around?
sudo mount -t ntfs-3g yields the same output.
