The NAS does support NTFS (your other drives are formatted that way). But it does use a third-party package to do that.
I'm guessing it might be the Paragon software. If I'm right, then
# mount -t ufsd /dev/sdg2 /media/USB_HDD_3
might work.

As you can see from the df command, normally it would be mounted as /media/USB_HDD_x
So you can look in /media, and find a USB_HDD folder that isn't being used (for example USB_HDD_2), and try mounting with
# mount /dev/sdf2 /media/USB_HDD_2
Then see if the expected files and folders show up in /media/USB_HDD_2.
However, this might not be enough to access the drive with file explorer or the web ui.

So i had all the USB drive plugged out, so after pluging in "the USB", this time around the other drive came up.
Output of blkid:

so i modified your command and ran
root@BhaiyaJi:/home/admin# mount /dev/sdg2 /media/USB_HDD_3 mount: mount point /media/USB_HDD_3 does not exist root@BhaiyaJi:/home/admin# ls /media/ USB_HDD_4
so i created a new folder and tried to mount
root@BhaiyaJi:/home/admin# mkdir /media/USB_HDD_3 root@BhaiyaJi:/home/admin# ls /media/ USB_HDD_3 USB_HDD_4 root@BhaiyaJi:/home/admin# mount /dev/sdg2 /media/USB_HDD_3 mount: unknown filesystem type 'ntfs'
So there you have it....well why does it say so ??

Yes that did work, i can access all the folders and it seems it has all the data.
And as you said they did not appear in the GUI or shared folders list...
Can you help me to fix this issue, it should have mounted and available accross share automatically
