Error opening '/dev/da0s1': Operation not permitted
Failed to mount '/dev/da0s1': Operation not permitted
The NTFS partition is hibernated. Please resume and shutdown Windows
properly, or mount the volume read-only with the 'ro' mount option, or
mount the volume read-write with the 'remove_hiberfile' mount option.
For example type on the command line:

            mount -t ntfs-3g -o remove_hiberfile /dev/da0s1 /mnt
Code: 
#  mount -t ntfs-3g -o remove_hiberfile /dev/da0s1 /mnt

mount: /dev/da0s1 : Operation not supported by device

I tried to restart the drive but no effect. What I should try now ?

You need to install sysutils/fusefs-ntfs first.

Then man ntfs-3g and you will get all the responses you are looking for

I have it installed as u can see. It doesnt work..

I think there is something wrong with the drive so transferring files via network.

Case closed.
 
Never give up! :)

Does it mean that the disk contains a Windows OS, so you booted from that and shutted down properly?
Have you also tried to mount that disk with another Windows OS and unmounted it correctly?
If it's not enough, try to mount with read-only permissions.

These are the ugly workarounds that I usually follow in those situations.
