My best guess is that it's simple luck: on the occasion(s) you wanted to
access the drive manually, it happened to be identified as sdb. Today, it

This inability to predict which device name will be assigned to a given
device is the reason the switch to the UUID method was done.
Wes,
Okay. While I've not seen this when manually mounting the backup drive I've
seen different USB flash drives identified by the kernel with different
device names, each consistently assigned the same name.
Thanks very much,
Rich
