How does one configure Opensuse 12.2 to mount USB drives so that permissions on them can be changed?

I have a OpenSuse 12.2 box that I am using as a NAS server. I have a Vantec 4 bay multiple drive enclosure that is connected via USB3. OpenSuse sees the drives, and I was successful at configuring them to mount at boot without having to click on them in Dolphin. However, I would like to change the permissions on them so that I can copy to them without being Root. I have tried changing the ownership and permissions from both the command line as Root as well as trying with Dolphin as Root. I get no error messages. it acts like it is doing what I ask, but then when I go back in and veiw the permissions, they haven't changed. Do I need to go about mounting these external drives differently? Can this be configured through Yast? If not, could someone please help me with the syntax needed to do this? In case it matters, these drives are NTFS. I can copy to them logged on as Root. If someone can help me with this I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanking you in advance.

Regards,
Tony
