You shouldn't need to unplug a drive to make a fresh install clean from
any other installs, however it does make easier to avoid accidentally

you're changing what drives are plugged in, or playing with BIOS options
for which one to boot up, the system may identify each drive differently
(e.g. what was considered the first and second drives might be numbered
differently).

That's my thought, too, although anaconda sets /etc/fstab up with the partition UUID to avoid that issue. However, if you're going to want those partitions mounted at specific mount points, it's much easier to do that during installation.
