Are you still running from a LiveCD media? If yes, why? :-?

That has to be the damaged volume. Was it added automatically by the
system or is that you manually mounted?

Yes, I also think so, I mean, that permissions have no direct relation
with the problem.

Yes, that can be the cause. A corrupted or severe damaged filesystem can
fool nautilus and prevent from files and folders to be displayed (and
even more if it was a part of spread LVM volume). Look, even "ls" is
having problems ("I/O errors") to show them.
You can, however, try with another file browser, just to compare with the
Nautilus output, but I think that would be irrelevant for the main
problem.

I wouldn't bother about that now (given the status and history of the
data) and start from scratch should the hard disk present no hardware
problems.
