I'm sorry, I sort of forgot the question.

First, you cannot mount 2 partitions in 1 place unless only 1 is mounted at a 
time. To have them simultaneously mounted in the same folder will only cause 
headaches.

my advise: create 2 seperate mount points in fstab and create 2 seperate 
folders /home/media/files/<folder 1> and 
/home/media/files/<folder 2>. 

I like to mount everything in /media/c, /media/d, /media/e, /media/f and so on 
and so forth.
