I installed Ubuntu 22.04 and LVM during installation. I have 3 HDs before installing I moved all data to the 3rd drive, sdc.

Now after installing it, I do not see the sdc. With gparted I can see the sdc and it is called sdc. It shows an area with data. MY DATA but I cannot see it in Nautilus.

How to see it and move my data back to the /home/user/? The data was created on Ubuntu 23.04. I went down because of too many problems on 23.04. What can I do?

# resize2fs /dev/vg_tecmint_extra/tecmint_reduce_test 10GB

should be:

# resize2fs /dev/vg_tecmint_extra/tecmint_reduce_test 10G
