You seem to have /dev/sdd1 already mounted on /mnt/temp.

And you've manually mounted /dev/sde1 on /mnt/temp as well as it being 
automounted on
/run/media/bobg.

Not sure that is what you wanted to accomplish.

After boot this morning I switched on the power on the external, usb drive adapter and an icon appeared on the desktop screen. I clicked on "Mount" and got:

/dev/sdd1 on /run/media/bobg/a3cd7e7f-254d-410a-b120-e02524f75a29 type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,seclabel,data=ordered,uhelper=udisks2)


So the command 'e2label /dev/sdd1 st1000' makes it possible to add another device, it doesn't change the name. What did I miss in setting up the external drive initially?

None of this really matters since all I need is to have the data saved and to be able to use it to recover if needed. But I would like things to work predictably whan I configure something.
