If you've not seen errors when you're using the drive, then probably
not.
I haven't seen any errors, so it's probably a feature rather than a bug
with this drive.

How about trying to turn it into user unit/service? It would require
a login. But may not delay that process.
There's no indication it has anything to do with my existing unit(s)
such as dock-watch or raid.[auto]mount, neither of which are logged in
the journal extract I posted, so I don't think converting any of that
into a user unit or service would make any difference.
Just to be sure, my next step will be to completely disable those units
and reboot again, but I'm 99% sure that is still going to show the 30-
second delay.
