Mount Ntfs partition

I have /dev/sda4 ntfs partion. i have heard ntfs-3g is not really being used and i can see this drive in dolphin and mount it but its read only. how can i list this in my fstab if not using ntfs-3g. what options should i use? Thank You

EDIT:
checked "mount" and udisk is mounting the drive read only. how can i make usdisks mount it rw.

If you want to mount the drive read/write then, as far as I am aware, you will need to use ntfs-3g.
