Not able to move/delete files from HDD

Open a terminal. Run

sudo mkdir /mnt/{sda1,sda2,sda5,sda6} -p

Then, open /etc/fstab.

sudo nano /etc/fstab

at end this file, paste the following

UUID=a86c5980-4773-4932-90ef-ad0a97610e83 /mnt/sda1       ext4    defaults,noatime 0 2
UUID=77d462a0-1576-4eed-b18d-bbafea04c24a /mnt/sda2       ext4    defaults,noatime 0 2
UUID=9c09fd9d-f36b-42b6-9ca5-bfeb6219d0e5 /mnt/sda5       ext4    defaults,noatime 0 2
UUID=23c7fa5a-28fb-49e3-854a-638bfec7844c /mnt/sda6       ext4    defaults,noatime 0 2

Make sure you don’t touch other already existing lines.

Save and exit (Ctrl+s ctrl+x)

From next reboot, these partitions should be mounted in respective folder under /mnt.
