Mount options for external SSD used for backups (BackinTime and general data storage)

What I have found that works best for is to disable User Sessions Defaults and enable Mount at startup.
Then select Identity As < By UUID> then select your mount path to be in /run/media/<your_username>/<your_mount_directory_name/
