Mounting drives and sudo

Why do some internal drives need root permissions to mount and some don't? All ive found online is about fstab but when i generated fstab none of them were mounted, my fstab file only has entries for the boot drive.

Re: Mounting drives and sudo

Assuming you want to allow none root mounting using the mount command see mount.8#Non-superuser_mounts.
