    So I don't think chown and chmod will work with an NTFS drive without some additional kajiggering.

    I would add options to fstab regarding your user and/or default file permissions on mount. This guide seems like a good place to start: https://linuxconfig.org/changing-file-pe...s-in-linux.

    Ignore installing ntfs-3g unless you have an ancient kernel (uname -r will show you kernel version). The guide has options for dmask and fmask, though I have also seen umask used as part of mounting. I would follow the guide, as it seems trivial to add the information there to fstab and remount.
