I've had this fun too ... what init system is 12.04 using? I put a line for my cdrom in /etc/fstab, and it automounted fine - until I rebooted the computer without a CD in the drive and systemd kicked me into the recovery console as it treated the lack of a CD as a critical error ... So you have two obvious options here - (1) put your drives into fstab with "noauto,user" options. That way either user id can manually mount the drive, and the other should be able to see it, or (2) whatever init system you've got, find out how to autodetect the insertion of the drive, and automount it for you at a particular mount point. I think now you can multimount these things, so maybe you could automount at both ~phil/2TB and ~patchy/2TB, and linux will sort out the access locks etc for you ...
