To enable Trash can support on a NTFS partition you will have to make an entry in your /etc/fstab file. You must specify the drive by UUID and assign a userid.
To find the correct UUID:
sudo blkid
Returns:
... /dev/sda2: LABEL="Ubuntu" UUID="12312312312312312" TYPE="ext4" /dev/sda3: LABEL="Data" UUID="45645645645645645" TYPE="ntfs" ...
Now edit fstab:
sudo gedit /etc/fstab
Add the following lines:
... # NTFS Partitions UUID=45645645645645645 /media/DATA ntfs-3g defaults,uid=1000,locale=en_US.UTF-8 0 0 ...
To prevent automatic mounting add 'noauto':
... # NTFS Partitions UUID=45645645645645645 /media/DATA ntfs-3g defaults,noauto,uid=1000,locale=en_US.UTF-8 0 0 ...
Now remount the partitions.
sudo umount -a sudo mount -a
