So i have read the wiki but I dont understand fstab, Am I going to have to manually add every drive I plug in to fstab in order to mount it? That cant be right?

You don't have to manage fstab manually if you don't want to. The HAL (hardware abstraction layer) daemon will automatically detect, configure, and mount devices if you install it and set it up.

Just put your permanent drive partitions into /etc/fstab (I believe the arch installer doe this for you). Removable drives, or USB stick drives, etc. are handled via HAL as Arisna said. Gnome and KDE should do this for you assuming you have HAL running.
