If you want the Mount command to work correctly, then your Storage
drawer must be in you SYS: directory. The Mount command looks in
SYS:Storage when searching for the mountlist of the device you want
to mount.

I my opinion you ought to move your Storage drawer back to SYS:
where it belongs.

Because Storage is a drawer, not a logical assign. The logical assign
Storage: is simply not used. It is of course easy to advocate that
it should exist, because it would solve the problems that you encountered.
But, unfortunately, it has for some unknown reason been decided that
Storage must be SYS:Storage
