I have an idea. Maybe you could find UUID of partition on that usb drive
and put its designation in /etc/fstab with appropriate path where you
want it to mount :)

Put usb in
do df -h to figure out what is device for that usb
do vol_id device_name
put new line in /etc/fstab with path where to mount next time.

I didn`t try it, but I think it could work :)
Try ;)
