I tried this the other day with a drive formatted as NTFS and it just appeared automatically as /dev/sdb for the drive and /dev/sdb1, /dev/sdb2 and /dev/sdb3 for the three paritions. Here’s the output of lsmod on my system…
lsmod

Most of the USB modules are there to support the zd_b module. I have no idea which ones I really need. You might try some combination of these…
