When i plug in an external storage i don't have read write permissions as user. Is it correct to run chmod -R 777 /media and chown -R du:users /media to solve it? (du is my username)

By default if you plug in a usb storage device only an item in /dev is added, but nothing mounted. The permissions and mount point depend on the application that does the actual mounting (pmount/udev/thunar/.../).

how are you mounting it, and what filesystem is on it?

I'll bet you 10 to 1 that it is NTFS and it's (auto)mounted with 'ntfs' instead of 'ntfs-3g' ...
