I have two SATA hard drives, they are assigned names /dev/sda and /dev/sdb.
When USB removable devices are mounted, the system assigns them a
name, such as /dev/sdc, /dev/sdd, and so on. These names seem not to
be recycled, even after a system reboot. So my system is currently up
to /dev/sdg and /dev/sdh.
Is there an easy way to reset this name assignment? Some Google
browsing suggests unload and reload the usb-storage module. This
seems rather violent.
