If I'm not mistaken, you should be able to overcome your problem with
an alias to the drive in question. It's worth a try anywho.

Mount the drive and create an alias to it and then unmount the drive.
Use the alias in whatever fashion you wish (scripted, double-click,
etc.) to bring the drive back online. I haven't done much with this,
but it just worked on a partition. <shrug>

Unfortunately that will probably only work until reboot.

The unmounted drives/local volumes should (re)appear on a reboot anyway, assuming that everything is powered up. I thought/assumed that the issue was with mounting a drive after it had been unmounted manually. <shrug>

As long as the drive is powered up, why wouldn't it (the script/alias) survive a reboot?
