No, not really. Once I set them up in the directory tree, what the drive's device name is won't make a diff to how the system works. I was more worried that maybe the device names (numbers) could change in the future and then I'd have to start wonderung about what drive is what now and where to mount what device now. They won't change unless you move them. If you rearrange the order then their device numbers will change and you would have to modify the /etc/fstab file.But, they won't change just by rebooting or something like that. You would have to open the cabinet and move them. If you are worried by this sort of thing, label your filesystems (with newfs -L or tunefs -L) and mount using /dev/ufs/volname.
