If you plug in more than one storage device, it depends on the order (just tested it). The first plugged in (or better recognised) gets /dev/sde1, the second /dev/sdf1. For my problem it would be probably good enough to remember to plug the disk in and switch it on before I plug another stick in. Then I could just set the options in fstab - but I would like the other option - using properly configured hotplugs - better.
