To open up your drive to all users on your system, change the flags to
look like this:
user,exec,rw,umask=000

If you would rather open up to only a few users, use groupadd to create
a new group, say "cgroup", then edit /etc/group, locate the line for
your new group, and append a comma separated list of users to the line
like this:

cgroup:x:400:user1,user2,user3,user4

Then edit the flags in /etc/fstab again and change them to:

user,exec,rw,gid=400,umask=007

To deny all access to anyone other than your four users, or umask=002 to
make writing available only to your four users.

Check man mount for more on flags.
