When I use one USB port only, I mount it as /dev/sdb1. But for simultaneously using two or even three ports, which are the /dev name(s) I have to use? Instead of looking for hardcoded names, look under /dev/disk/by-id so you can see your disks by id. Or if they have labels /dev/disk/by-label etc.
I plugged in two usb sticks and invoked 'ls /dev/disk/by-id'.
As Ismail pointed out you want to run "ls -l /dev/disk/by-id" to see where the names point to. You can also run "parted -l" or "fdisk -l" either will list the devices.
