Well, I do have a very volatile computer-setup. Most, except one,
CD/DVD-Drives - and I do have 4-5-  as well as several hard-disks are
either USB2 or FireWire-Devices. Depending on the use, plug-in some of
these and I am more than happy that I can use their Labels instead of
figuring out which device was assigned to a one of them. You have to try
that one and I promise you will understand my point of view in that
area :)
