If you want to match /dev/devicename to a device you own (such as a usb hard drive or usb hard disk) you can use udevinfo to find out what attributes you can map to:
First you run dmesg to find out what devicename has been assigned to the drive. This will be towards the bottom of the information. You can also try
dmesg | grep "Attached SCSI disk" -B1
The first line should tell you which device the computer has attatched the drive to.
udevinfo -a -p $(udevinfo -q path -n /dev/sdh1)
This will show several devices related to /dev/sdh1. You can only match rules from 1 parent device, not from multiple ones!
eg some of the output for above is:

allows you to construct the following rules to match the device:
KERNEL=="sd?1", SUBSYSTEMS=="scsi", ATTRS{model}=="External HD ", SYMLINK+="test"
KERNEL=="sd?1", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{serial}=="948778888888", SYMLINK+="iomega1"
Both will work. You only have to use one.
I put these in /etc/udev/rules.d/local.rules
/etc/init.d/udev restart
and then you have to unplug and replug the device for the symlink to appear in /dev (so /dev/iomega1 or /dev/test)
In order to automount, you can add:
, RUN+="/bin/mount -t auto /dev/iomega1 /media/iomega1"
to the rule, so the above rule in local.rules becomes:
KERNEL=="sd?1", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{serial}=="948778888888", SYMLINK+="iomega1", RUN+="/bin/mount -t auto /dev/iomega1 /media/iomega1"
