You can always set up a udev rule that will give the drive a known alias
(e.g. "backup_drive") based on some fixed information that is stored in
sysfs (such as vendor or model). Your scripts can then use the alias
instead of the real drive name.

This article is a little out of date, but might be useful:

What if you have more than one identical device and might want to plug more than one in at once?
