Recently I upgraded my system with a new MB and on MB SSD card. I have my root and home theere. My system has 4 hot pluggable slots for SATA. Currently my old home and root are on a RAID 1 pair and my backup drive is on a third.

I certainly can place the, in /etc/fstab and treat them as permanently mounted. But, I would like to keep them offline. For some good technical reasons udev does not automount these drives. The main candidates for physical removale are the backup drive and a data drive (for very large files and directories like VMs and stuff that I don't want on the SSD.

I could set these up using autofs. But I also have been looking at pmount(1).
