Mount usb connected drive permanently in Debian

— find partition uuid:

sudo file -sL /dev/sda3

# Edit your fstab via

sudo vim /etc/fstab

# and add the line below

UUID=0e281f8d-1117-451d-9b1b-b07405a631bc /media auto nosuid,nodev,nofail 0 0

# Replace the UUID in example above with the UUID of your partition and /media with proper mount-point.
