Auto Mount Swappable HDD

Can someone please tell me step-by-step, with commands, how to get Linux Mint to auto mount on boot-up an NFTS hot-swappable HDD? It is in an internal cage/drawer, not a plug and play external HDD.

 

Looking on the net, the procedure seems to be different from than that for a hard-wired drive but I am uncertain how to implement it.

 

Also, is it possible for the swappable HDD to appear in the file manager at the same level of the tree as my primary drive. Since I will be transferring files back and forth frequenctly, this seems more user-friendly than having it buried in "media", or "home".

 

Any advice much appreciated.
