Unable to mount SSD

To start, try to see if you can identify the partition type by explicitly using the command

lsblk -f

If that doesn't give you clues, try

lsblk --output-all

If that still doesn't give you a hint as to the fstype for the partitions, then the experts will need to dig in further.

I remember from some earlier bad experiences that any Windows-partitioned drive is "layered" in a not-obvious fashion and the msdos/ntfs may need care in the specification for mounting. I don't care to relive those experiences and avoid Windows-originating drives altogether.

I will refer you to the script Devices__ReportDiskParts.sh that is referenced in an earlier posting.
