Backup name

     A while back I bought a plastic box you can put a hard drive within 
and then plug in the USB plug into the Linux computer and at first it 
showed up as /media/disk-1 on my computer. I would then use rsync to 
backup the computer.

     But when I changed the hard drive to a larger one and format to 
ext3 instead of that Windows format the name of the backup changed to this:

         /media/ebf426af-fe2b-404a-ab35-402ec8494295/

Which is long and rather hard to type right. Does anyone have any idea 
how to change the name to disk-1 again?

     The box is made by ADS Technologies, inc model USB X-835...
