Not sure - I mount USB drives through fstab and have not tested udev on
CSOS.    

I use NTFS formatted drives with sensible partition labels (e.g.
'Music', 'Backup', etc) and then have lines in /etc/fstab:- 


Code:
--------------------
    
  
  LABEL=Music   /storage/Music      ntfs-3g    noexec,nofail,noatime,defaults   
 0  0
  LABEL=Backup    /storage/Backup    ntfs-3g    noexec,nofail,noatime,defaults  
  0  0
  
  
--------------------


These will then be mounted at boot time if present (the nofail attribute
avoids possible issues if not present) or can be booted later by issuing
a "mount -a" command.  Disadvantage is that they will not auto mount. 

Perhaps someone else can test udev for us.....
