What happens when you try to use it? Does it give any specific error messages?

It sounds like a permissions issue, but need more info

I get the following when I try to save or delete anything to the drive.

Code:

Error while deleting.

"/media/HO...ences.doc" cannot be deleted because it is on a read-only disk.
