It's when I tried to mount an external disk "storage3" from Nautilus' Computer place that it could not do it, and in the informations of this disk, I could see that it was obviously NOT the right /dev/sdX with the "storage3" label (before rebooting, it was right, but rebooting changed the order of /dev/sdX and apparently Nautilus mounts were not updated, as if Nautilus have kept disk label and device correspondance in memory).
