Hi Everyone.
At the moment, I am using a cron job to automount my SATA (NTFS) disk at reboot. Sometimes it does not mount.
Is there a better way to do it?
Thanks.

If it's always the same drive you can put the mount options in /etc/fstab so that way it mounts at boot. Why did you use a cron job? Is the drive sometimes detached?
Example of line in /etc/fstab
/dev/sdb1 /mnt/mydrive ntfs defaults 0 2
where /dev/sdb1 is the drive and partition number of the NTFS partition. /mnt/mydrive is the directory in which the filesystem will be mounted (directory must exist!). Then the filesystem type ntfs is specified with the 'default' options and the 0 and 2 are just some defaults.
Some more info is for example in http://askubuntu.com/questions/113733/how-do-i-correctly-mount-a-ntfs-partition-in-etc-fstab
