My hard disk has decided to not mount anymore. It has a partition, one I use for Time Machine and the other I use for storing files. This is what diskutil list
looks like. Is my work all gone?

disk4 and disk5 is where the problem lies. I am wondering what the solution is. When I am opening files like iBoySoft the files are there and clear to see that my hard disk has not been wiped. However, it will not mount.
