This link might help you, In Linux the mode of NTFS (and FAT32) is determined by the partition's mount options. You cannot change it via chmod. – sudodus Apr 18 '18 at 13:07

The destination drives are mounted, but for whatever reason, they've been mounted read-only. If you right-click on the mounted drive in nautilus (started as gksudo, like you did before), a dropdown menu appears. Go to Properties at the bottom, and then to the "Permissions" tab. Maybe it will let you change the permissions to "write" there and the problem will go away.
