2. Should I place "/home/masatran", or "/home", on the drive?

This is your choice here. With /home, you'll have the homes of all your users
on your drive (except if some have their home elsewhere, of course). You
probably want the other choice.


If he's only going to be mounting one home directory he's better off
just mounting it as /masatran and changing his home directory to the
new directory.
