Automounting USB NTFS drive

[MJR42]

Moode uses udisks-glue for auto mounting. The config is in /etc/udisks-glue.conf

What format is the USB disk?
What usage scenario needs pi:pi as the owner?

I'm transferring flac files onto the hard drive and I want to use WinSCP. I can't log in using root, and I can't write to the drive, or change the write permissions because the drive is in ntfs format (I used to plug it into my Windows machine when I was ripping CDs).

I either need to change the write permission or the owner, but I can't to either with the way the drive automounts. It's a known issue with ntfs, and it should be cureable with the write mount parameters.
