You *don't*, *ever*, put something like "/dev/hdd" (the *device*) in
your fstab !!!
Instead, you must put "/dev/hddn" (a *partition*) where the n is the
partition 
number.
So, for media factory-formatted, put "/dev/hdd4".

If you reformat yourself the media, put "/dev/hdd1" or whatever
partition
you created.
