fedora-users: question regarding mounting the Seagate FreeAgent

question regarding mounting the Seagate FreeAgent Go 1T drive

After I partition, format and label the Seagate FreeAgent Go 1T drive
and I'm ready to mount it is this what I should use:

mount -t fuseblk -o rw,nosuid, nodev,allow_other,blocksize=4096
/dev/sdb1 /media/<myLabel>

Should I add - uhelper=hal to the mount?

mount -t fuseblk -o rw,nosuid,
nodev,uhelper=hal,allow_other,blocksize=4096 /dev/sdb1
/media/<myLabel>

what about adding shortname=lower to the mount?

mount -t fuseblk -o rw,nosuid,
nodev,uhelper=hal,shortname=lower,allow_other,blocksize=4096 /dev/sdb1
/media/<myLabel>

Thank you for your attention, consideration, and feedback.
