I have secondary internal HDD, to larger files and download (OS is in SSD).
I just formatted it with ext4 filesystem.
Now I cannot create any folder, nor set any application working to it (trasmission, jd2, etc.).
My OS is Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
Few months ago I tried another time, but then I formatted it in NTFS.
In terminal I do lsblk:
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda 8:0 0 931,5G 0 disk
└─sda1 8:1 0 931,5G 0 part /media/sassari74/eaae11b1-a939-4674-a5a7-6e0357
sdb 8:16 0 223,6G 0 disk

It looks like the partition you're talking of is /dev/sda1, and it is mounted at /media/sassari74/eaae11b1-a939-4674-a5a7-6e0357, so do:
sudo chown $USER /media/sassari74/eaae11b1-a939-4674-a5a7-6e0357 -R
This should set the ownership to you and you should then be able to create and modify files in it.
