fstab

I had 2 HDD, today I bought a new one, I would like to mount this HDD at boot, it's working, but the new HDD mounted under robu not root, why?

Content of the fstab:

UUID=8e492a04-c05d-4861-b996-a36ebbaf3d43 /media/WESYS_RAID    ext4   rw 0       0

UUID=12C81F25C81F071F  /media/WESYS_DATA  ntfs defaults,iocharset=utf8    0   0

/dev/mapper/WeSyS_LVM /media/WESYS_LVM ext4     rw 0    0

This is the rights.

drwxrwxrwx 1 root  root  4096 2012-04-05 11:51 WESYS_DATA
drwxr-xr-x 9 root  root  4096 2012-03-01 10:11 WESYS_LVM
drwx------ 3 robu  robu  4096 2012-04-10 12:33 WESYS_RAID
