AVT: What I do is to set iCal to run a mount script about a minute or 2 before SD is scheduled to run.
My mount script is: (compiled & saved as an application in Script Editor, and set to run as an alarm in iCal)
set diskName to "Backup"
set deviceName to do shell script "diskutil list | grep \"" & diskName & "\" | awk '{print $6}'"
do shell script "diskutil mountDisk /dev/" & deviceName
