just to note, for those you who are like me and reverted back to Version 147~6.0 of udev to stop the memory leaks, you can get your hot swapping of external drives/memory sticks, etc working by opening up a terminal and typing
sudo stop udev
sudo start udev
then your external drives will get will pop up as normal. You'll have to do this every time you reboot your system though.
