I assume you cloned a drive.  If the drives are simply prepared blanks,
you could modify one of the drives (change its UUID) with a simple
reformat.  And, of course, change the /etc/fstab file to use the new
uuid.

If the drives are blanks/empty, then I'd have thought the install
routine would give you some method to prepare them to suit ignoring the
current status of the drives.  n.b. It's usually a waste of time to
prepare blank drives before starting an install.

I'm not sure about modifying a drive with data on it.  It should be
doable without destroying content (research the tune2fs or btrfstune
and uuidgen commands for ext or btrfs file systems on some OSs). 
Possibly gparted might help.

You could use something other than the UUID to mount them (device name,
volume name).

I know I'm being a bit vague, but if either of those steps sound
understandable, we can elaborate.
