Hi Jo,
I very good presentation.
I have an approach that I follow for my external backup drive.
I usually keep it plugged into the system, but with the entry within the /etc/fstab having ... noauto,user
#as I am a single user on the system. Were multiple users need access to that backup, I would have ... noauto,users

I often mount other temporary stuff with /mnt. It allows me to not worry about system reboots keeping information that should not be there.
