Dunno if this has been said before but what is wrong with just using
sdn where n is the SCSI id of the device?  If you have more than one
scsi bus then the next bus is n+8.  I found it very disconcerting when
adding a new drive to my scsi chain that I had an sd1 instead of the
sd3 that I expected to get.  The worst case scenario I can think of
off the top of my head is that you have /usr on a separate disk and
you lose a disk in the scsi chain, suddenly your /usr is not mounted.
Sure you can manually mount it and fix up the fstab but that is
stuffing around that could be avoided.
