[TriLUG] USB

One more question for today...I've got this 30 GB external USB hard
drive that I plugged into my running 7.2 system and nothing (apparently)
happened.  Do I need to make entries into /etc/fstab to get this drive
to work?  I noticed that all the device files for USB are called
something like /dev/ttyUSBx or /dev/usb/ttyUSBx.  Shouldn't the drive
hot plug and automount?

Thanks (again!),
Jeff
