How to always mount usb ntfs drive to the same mountpoint

[cactikid]

Thinking once removed they wont automatically get set up again?,Awaiting further updates by the main men .

Be warned no plugging/unplugging of cables or usb devices while powered on as blown ports due to a surge can blow things.

I thought the USB spec allowed for hot-plugging?

I am expecting them to automatically mount to a fixed mountpoint.

Do they automatically mount at all?
Mine don't.
By "fixed" do you meant "the same one each time" or "one I have configured" (or both).

As far as I can tell, usb devices are hot-pluggable, the only possible danger in not unmounting/ejecting them before removal.

Which isn't a danger for the device (or the host) but rather a danger for any file-system which is on the device and mounted at the time.

There are plenty of dire warnings on this forum relating to HDMI cable connect/disconnect whilst devices are powered up.

HDMI ≠ USB.

Yes we know that HDMI is not the same as USB - I was referring to the cables part of cactikid's post.

As regards the loss of the upper case, somewhere between posts #19 and #20 USB became usb , and it was usb before post #19 - I just used reply with quote - maybe the go advanced method doesn't do it?
