I've got 4 HD, 1 SSD for the system and 3 SATA HD for data. I had some problems with Windows and I decided to format my system HD (without partitions) and install just Ubuntu. I've installed Ubuntu, and now it can mount only 1 HD. For the other 2 HD I received the following message:

Error mounting /dev/sda5 at /media/arberto/Robetta new: Command-line `mount -t "ntfs" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,dmask=0077,fmask=0177" "/dev/sda5" "/media/arberto/Robetta new"' exited with non-zero exit status 14: The disk contains an unclean file system (0, 0).
Metadata kept in Windows cache, refused to mount.
Failed to mount '/dev/sda5': Operation not permitted
The NTFS partition is in an unsafe state. Please resume and shutdown
Windows fully (no hibernation or fast restarting), or mount the volume
read-only with the 'ro' mount option.

I've read a lot of questions and answers about my problem, but everyone say to deactivate hibernation in Windows 8... but I have no more Windows 8!

I read it could be related to a file, hiberfile.sys. How can I delete it? I don't care about not saved sessions, and after all they are only data disks.

I've already do that: Unable to mount Windows (NTFS) filesystem due to hibernation But I want to write on that disks, and I don't want to mount them every time I start my pc.

"The disk contains an unclean file system" It appears the disk is not formatted correctly. I would recommend using Gparted. Download it from Ubuntu Software Manager then run it and go to that disk. Remove any partitions on it. Then create a single partition using the entire disk and format it! The disk probably still has a UEFI boot and formatting on it from the Windows 8 install and Gparted can correct that.
