Is it enough to change options to "rw,noauto" and pass to 0 for the two 
I don't want mounted or fscked?


See "man 5 fstab":

If the option ``noauto'' is specified, the file system will not
be auto-matically mounted at system startup.

and

If the sixth field is not present or is zero, a value of zero is
returned and fsck(8) will assume that the file system does not
need to be checked.


Thanks for the reply.
I read both fsck and fstab pages.. I just wanted to make sure that I was 
reading the man pages correctly..
