Starting a program when plugging in an external disk?

Hi,


I have an external USB disk drive which I would like to use to backup
one of my computers. I would like for a program (for example "rsync")
to be started automatically when I plug in this disk to do the backup
and then unmount it. It should do it only if this specific disk is
plugged in, and not when others are plugged in. Is this possible?


Thanks,

Avi
