I recently bought an SSD where I installed Ubuntu 19. I decided to use my old HDD as extra storage. However, the mounted HDD is unusable as it requires root access. I can't change it from the properties since it states that I am not the owner of it. Rookie here.

Update: Followed the instruction on this link:How to manually mount a partition? , this is what I got after entering the last step.

$ sudo mount -t auto /dev/sdb1 /mnt/storagedrive
mount: /mnt/storagedrive: /dev/sdb1 already mounted on /hdd.

I would recommend sudo gnome-disks to reconfigure the old disk. See https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Disks
