The former is possible, the latter might be easier for you.

You can control the HD1K's smbmount options via the /etc/smbdiscovered
file.  Unfortunately, that file gets rewritten periodically by a cron
job.  So if you edit the options in /etc/smbdiscovered, you should
consider removing the /etc/cron.d/smbremount file so that your edits
don't get clobbered.
