Hi,
     For some reason when I start KDE I am being prompted for credentials to mount /dev/sdc7, but there is no entry in /etc/fstab for the UUID of that volume. Where is the prompt coming from? I think /dev/ sdc7 is my Ubuntu boot partition.

It might be the file manager automounting available filesystems. If you give it the password, where does it mount it?

You could probably avoid this by putting an entry for it in the fstab with "noauto".
Being auto mounted is fine, but the volume being mounted seems to change between /dev/sdc7 and /dev/sde1 each time I boot. I've found what it is. In the device auto mount system settings I've set all "Attached Devices" to auto-mount at login with the /dev/sdc7 /dev/sde1 devices auto- mounting on attach. The device that the sudo password is prompted for is being mounted in folder /run/media/steve.

It's probably random which one is discovered first.  If you give the password, do they both get mounted?
No, only the volume that is listed in the prompt is mounted at /run/media/steve, where the subfolder is the UUID of the device being mounted.

regards,
Steve
