    So I come back to my MBP today to find out that my Volume identifiers have all been reversed:

    I.e. the order in which the system loaded the volumes changed (it used to be my internal HDD was /dev/disk0, etc.)

    Not a big deal, except when I try to mount a drive in Terminal, I had to recheck the diskutil list to make sure I was mounting the right one.

    Just curious why it did that, and if there's a way to set the order.
