Thanks Dave.
I'm attaching fstab.  I am using only UUID since seeing this issue.  10 boots 
found my /Data on sda 6 times sdb 4 times.

In rc.local I have:
# Spins down the sdb drive - to be quieter and save energy
hdparm -y /dev/sdb

That is now broken.  I will write a script that finds /Data then spins
down the other drive.

Can I use udev rules to always have sda assigned to my 1TB drive?  I'll
explore it.

Sidebar: fstab said Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' - that gives a list of
25 UUIDs with no partition locations.  I prefer 'ls -l /dev/disk/by-
uuid/' to see which UUID with which partition.

David
