Why do you think this USB file system is loaded as sda. My other USB drives come up sdc, after my two installed hard drives sda and sdb.
USB drives can come up in the order they are plugged in, or in the order that USB headers are probed. This is why I always use uuids and put a line if fstab for drives I need to show up in specific orders, such as my backup devices. I prevent USB storage from showing up ahead of ATA by disabling USB boot in motherboard firmware, but of course that's unhelpful when boot from USB is needed, in which case USB as sda is nice, keeping / filesystem on sda. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
