Unable to access drive from terminal

I have two internal disks and I did "LABEL=STORAGE /media/$USER/STORAGE auto nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0" (as recommended in the thread Mounting external hard disk for all users at start up in ubuntu 14.04) to have access to the disks. Before that I could not event mount the disks and it showed permission denied. After trying the above solution and adding similar lines in /etc/fstab I was able to open the drive. Now the problem is that I can just click on the drive using mouse and make a folder. But when I am trying to access it from terminal, I can do cd to the mounted disk but can't do mkdir or anything. It shows permission denied. Any solution would be very helpful. Thanks!
