Here's the situation, I have an external NTFS hard drive that I can
access through an administrator account, but if I am logged in with a
power user account I cannot write to this drive. If I were to share
this drive from an admin account then that would address my problem,
but I am looking for a more generic solution. Like what what happens if
a user plugs in multiple NTFS drives?
