I guess it is much better to use devfs.rules file:
% cat /etc/devfs.rules
[devfsrules_common=3D7]
add path 'da*' mode 660 group operator
add path 'acd*' mode 660 group operator
add path 'cd*' mode 660 group operator
add path 'pass*' mode 660 group operator
add path 'xpt*' mode 660 group operator
% fgrep devfs /etc/rc.conf
devfs_system_ruleset=3D"devfsrules_common"
%=20
This approach configures device permission on devfs on adding drive
automatically, also with ATA-based (or any other not-USB) memory stick
there is no USB attach event.=20
('operator' group can be changed to 'cdrom' or like)
