Well, it simply does not mount them.
I wonder why.

Case solved!

It is from /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.udisks.policy

I've changed

<action id="org.freedesktop.udisks.filesystem-mount-system-internal">
<description>Mount a system-internal device</description>
<description xml:lang="da">Montér en intern enhed</description>
<message>Authentication is required to mount the device</message>
<message xml:lang="da">Autorisering er påkrævet for at montere et fil system</message>
<defaults>
<allow_any>no</allow_any>
<allow_inactive>no</allow_inactive>
<allow_active>auth_admin_keep</allow_active>
</defaults>
</action>

to

<action id="org.freedesktop.udisks.filesystem-mount-system-internal">
<description>Mount a system-internal device</description>
<description xml:lang="da">Montér en intern enhed</description>
<message>Authentication is required to mount the device</message>
<message xml:lang="da">Autorisering er påkrævet for at montere et fil system</message>
<defaults>
<allow_any>no</allow_any>
<allow_inactive>no</allow_inactive>
<allow_active>yes</allow_active>
</defaults>
</action>

it is way more easy to add an entry in fstab.
I would advice to actually create the mountpoint in /mnt and NOT in /media because /media is maintained by fuse.

I have 5 hdds of 1tb each, and I rarely use them all at once.
I prefer to let them unmounted and dormant until I need some from them.

You are welcome!

I have googled for it.

Beware, sometimes, the config files involved might be overriden by updates.
