You can change that by adding an fstab entry. I use this for example:

UUID=6cb66da2-147a-4f3c-a513-36f6164ab581       /raid                   ext4    rw,noauto,user  1 1

and the mount happens automatically when the device is plugged in.

How does the system know to unmount the drive unless you tell it? There
are some ways to handle putting disks into standby mode after a timeout
 (see udisks(8)) but it's not clear if they'll work with USB devices.
In my case, I just explicitly unmount the drive within the backup
script. I don't know if there's really a better way to do it.
