Title:
  HDD disappearing after mounting if insufficient privileges

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Suppose you have not the necessary privileges to read and write on a
  particular type of media, for example the set of files of a to-be-
  mounted HDD ext4 partition, it disappears after opening (which
  automounts) it through "Places > Computer."

  In other words, without the required permissions to access it, its
  icon there disappears from view once mounted, and does not appear on
  the desktop like other mounted media would either. The icon reappears
  as soon as the hard disk drive is unmounted through the "Disk
  Utility." That only happens if the set of files it contains (or its
  main folder) have not been properly chowned.
