99% certain this is due to how udisk2 mounts external hard drives.

Your options are to manually mount the hard drive so that the ACL is not applied or to remove the ACL.

I wrote a guide in the walkthrough sub-forum for this process and a basic Linux permissions primer.

Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS w/HWE
Intel i3 12100
