Not exactly.

You should also see a da[0-9]+ device appear at about the same time the
umass0 mass storage device connects:

# umass0: detached
# umass0: USB Flash Disk, rev 2.00/2.00, addr 2
# da0: <JetFlash TS256MJF2B 2.00> Removable Direct Access SCSI-2 device
# da0: 40.000MB/s transfers
# da0: 250MB (512000 512 byte sectors: 64H 32S/T 250C)

Then you can look in /dev for da0* devices.  If the disk has partitions,
they will appear automatically as da0s1, da0s2, etc.
