NTFS Disk "failed to mount"

I have an iMac running El Capitan, and an external disk formatted NTFS that will not mount on the mac. It will mount perfectly in Windows and Ubuntu.

I'm not trying to write to it, right now I just want to read.

Here's my output of "diskutil mount disk3s1":

Volume on disk3s1 failed to mount
If the volume is damaged, try the "readOnly" option

Output of info:

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Solution 1:

I was getting the above error and a suis premount dissented error. I was eventually able to mount it by with:

sudo /sbin/mount_ntfs /dev/disk3s1

Solution 2:

I was also getting a similar error message: failed to mount: "SUIS premount dissented". I did the following to resolve this:

1. Created a new folder External-HDD, for example in /Volumes: sudo mkdir /Volumes/External-HDD
2. Opened up diskutility.app and noted the Device name for the external HDD. disk3s2, for example. (I wasn't able to mount it using DiskUtility.app)
3. Also note the filesystem for external HDD in DiskUtility: USB External Physical Volume • ExFAT
4. In terminal issue the following command:

sudo /sbin/mount_[filesystem type] /dev/[device name] /Volumes/[your folder]

Sample command:

sudo /sbin/mount_exfat /dev/disk3s2 /Volumes/External-HDD/
