Automount external disk before backup

Hi,

I would like SuperDuper to automount an externally connected (USB & Thunderbolt) disk before backup and autounmount after backup. I see that 2.7.2 has an option for autounmount after backup but don't see an option to mount before backup.

2 reasons for wanting this is:

a) remove noise from backup external drives when not in use
b) prevent the apps on the backups drive being visible in the "Open With" option

I did see an external thread around using a script to run the mount command but is that the recommended way of doing this?

Thanks
