Unfortunately, this is not the case. They are labeled. They are only
automatically mounted on /media/name if I am logged into gnome on the
console at the time that the drives are plugged in.

Is the behavior I am seeing the expected behavior, or is it indicative
of some unknown problem?

It was difficult to begin troubleshooting without even a guess as to
what mechanism might be mounting them automatically. I'll go under the
theory it was HAL and see what I can determine about its behavior
