but it is annoying that the "SCSI" drive (SATA and USB) order in which

way of forcing the order to what I want?  ie I have the boot disk as
/dev/sda of course but I want to specify the drive letter of the other
physical SATA and USB drives . .

The SATA drives should be consistent, the order is according to the controller which normally matches the numbering on the motherboard.  USB drives are dependent on the order that they get enumerated.  It should be consistent according to the hub ports, but not necessarily.  If it matters, you really should be using either LABEL or UUID for mounting purposes.
Or maybe udev rules? They used to work many Fedora versions ago.

Isn't progress wonderful?
