I did some research on the subject and everything I found about ext4 in
userspace said don't do it with data you care about. I finally looked
up options for fstab and found that changing user to users fixed the
problem. I backed up a drive today. When I finished, and unmounted the
backup drive, It didn't bug me for a password.

unmount the drive containing the backup, the system prompts me for my

the
backup drives.

A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from
