[Solved] 1 TB extrernal ntfs disk giving permission denied

Hi guys. I am a new archlinux user, after 3 years in kubuntu. I setup my system yesterday.
Now I am facing a problem with my ntfs 1TB external usb disk. Its giving permission denied even for root.

/media/My Book
bash-4.0# mkdir test
mkdir: cannot create directory `test': Operation not permitted

mount says this

bash-4.0# mount
/dev/sda3 on / type ext4 (rw)
none on /dev type tmpfs (rw,relatime,mode=755)
none on /proc type proc (rw,relatime)
none on /sys type sysfs (rw,relatime)
none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw)
none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
/dev/sda1 on /boot type ext2 (rw)
/dev/sda4 on /home type ext4 (rw)
/dev/sdb1 on /media/APOLLO type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal,uid=1000,utf8,shortname=mixed,flush)
/dev/sdc1 on /media/My Book type ntfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal,uid=1000,utf8)

There is no issue with fat32 320 GB usb disk.

ls -l on the disk mount point.

bash-4.0# ls -l
total 32

Try mounting with defaults.

Fixed it. I should have read the
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NTFS_Write_Support  twiki first.
