In GUI (Graphical User Interface) Operating System such as Window or GNOME Desktop in Linux can automatically mount USB device and can show data in it if the File System of that device is supported. But all users do not like or always do not have GUI mode of Operating System specially the CentOS or Red Hat Linux user. In this case, USB device must be mounted manually and then access data from it. On the other hand, by default Linux (CentOS or Red Hat) does not support NTFS File System.
