Ubuntu :: Mount USB Hardrive From The Terminal?

I'm trying to mount a USB hardrive from the terminal.

Using the following I can mount the hdd:

Code:
sudo mount -o rw,users /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usbhd However if I try and change to /mnt/usbhd :

Code:
-bash: cd: /mnt/usbhd: Permission denied

(if I change to root I can view the contents)

If I add umask=000 I can view the contents, but I can't do anything to them:

Code:
sudo mount -o rw,users,umask=000 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usbhd

Code:
mkdir: cannot create directory `misc': Read-only file system

I have tried changed the privileges of /mnt/usbhd, and I have tried adding an entry into /etc/fstab (and restarted), and I have tried using "user" rather than "users" but I get exactly the same results.

I don't have autofs or usbmount installed, which I read somewhere causes issues.

Code:
/dev/sdb1 on /mnt/usbhd type ntfs (rw,nosuid,nodev)

I've run these commands on another machine and it works perfectly, so it isn't the drive...?!
