What would cause a hard drive's, in an enclosure, filesystem to not mount in PopOs?

Still new to linux hope its ok to ask here. I decided to replace one of my backup drives for the first time in 5ish years with a new 2.5" HDD meant for internal use but in an enclosure (the enclosure works fine). I formatted it in ntfs via gparted and everything went as expected, I even created a large veracrypt container file....

mertn,

Maybe you unplugged the device before unmounting it leaving the filesystem in an odd state? Next time it fails to auto mount check /var/log/syslog for recent error clues.
