It's a SATA Seagate 2TB, almost brand new.

What is the history of this disk and what does 'Disks' report about it ?
'Disks' doesn't report any error, if that's the question. The partition is mounted as normal. If I mount the NTFS partition with the default settings of 'Disks', it is mounted with root as owner and read-write permission only for root.
I'm using an old distro of LL 4.4 where with same mounting parameters, a NTFS partition from a different disk (partitioned with Windows 7) works like charm. Of course, there is no UEFI boot partition (LL 4.4 didn't have) but would that be the clue?
