I have an Alienware XPS17 laptop with four USB2 ports. I've got a powered USB 7-Port hub plugged into one port and a Wacom tablet into another. I want to be able to attach AT LEAST three, preferably four, external hard drives (for data and back ups).
Every time I dismantle and reconstruct the system, the drive letters get reassigned. This plays havoc with my backup software. Is there some logic that can be applied to harden the connection between disc letter and physical drive? I haven't been able to make it happen.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
