Sorry, this is wrong
/dev/sdc on /run/media/user/Data Logger type vfat
(rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=ascii,shortname=mixed,showexec,utf8,flush,errors=remount-ro,uhelper=udisks2)
/dev/sdc 3856 0 3856 0% /run/media/user/Data
Logger
mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/tmp
mount: /mnt/tmp: special device /dev/sdc1 does not exist.
dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call
sdc2, sdc3 and sdc4 respond the same way.
