Ahh! I goofed! And I don't have the edit key available to edit my post.

VERY IMPORTANT - I mentioned about changing ownership of the folder you created to mount your drive in. I screwed up that command. I forgot to add the user in it.

sudo chown -R /media/localbackup

will not work. You need to have a user in it.

sudo chown -R jayce /media/localbackup

sudo - root
chown - change ownership
-R - recursively
jayce - user
/media/localbackup - directory you're applying these changes to

Change "jayce" accordingly to whatever user you want to own that folder.
