centos filesystem ntfs not configured in kernel

trying to install an external HD (Windows formatted) on a Centos box...

centos@localhost ~]$ sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdc2

Disk /dev/sdc2: 4000.7 GB, 4000650887168 bytes, 7813771264 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 33553920 bytes
Disk label type: dos
Disk identifier: 0x6e697373

This doesn't look like a partition table

Partition table entries are not in disk order
[centos@localhost ~]$ 


sudo yum install epel-release

Package epel-release-7-11.noarch already installed and latest version
Nothing to do


find /lib/modules/ | grep ntfs


nothing is found!

sudo yum install ntfs-3g -y



and now it works! Great! New mountpoint is /run/media/centos/Seagate\ Expansion\ Drive/
