Hi Lou,
Has your drive somehow been reformatted as NTFS? That would make it read-only. The fix for that would be to reformat (if you don't need any of the files on it) or install Paragon NTFS (which will give your Mac the ability to read NTFS drives).
If that's not it, try disabling permissions entirely on the drive. You do that by getting info on the drive itself and unticking the checkbox at the bottom of the info window. You can fix quite a lot of things that way if you don't want to spend time digging through permissions to find an issue.
If you've disabled permissions and the Mac still says that you don't have permission to do things, you should should probably check the health of the volume (in Disk Utility).

I have a 2TB GRaid that is my main content drive for a long project. Recently it seems to be locked all the time for some reason and I can't copy or delete items from it. Not sure how this happened. When I use command I to get info and manually unlock contents, it does nothing. I am told I don't have permission to move items on this drive. I repaired permissions on system drive and ran disk warrior on the GRaid. But still have the problem. It there a way to fix this issue? The drive is not functional if I can move files on and off.
