What exactly does "not always" mean?
Maybe it's just the periodic fsck which changes the mount count?
Check your fstab for the last field (fs_passno). Set either this to 0 to
disable periodic checks and/or use tune2fs -c and tune2fs -i to disable
periodic full checks (not recommended, btw.).

Well, do your disks, your controller and your driver support SATA
Hotplug? If one of them does not, don't wonder about system freezes :)
