    Plug them into a non-gaming Linux distro like Fedora. It’ll read them no problem unless they’re Bitlocker encrypted. Then reformat them in Bazzite so you can use them for storage.

      Bazzite is Fedora, no?

      I daily Bazzite KDE and my NTFS drives are mounting all fine. The only annoyance is that it pops a warning that Bazzite doesn’t like non-Btrfs/ext4 drives every time I access them.

        It is, but I suspect they’re trying to mount the NTFS from Steam Big Picture mode. Also, Bazzite is immutable, so there may be something funky there.
