The same happened to me when I attached one more sata-drive.
After that those two which used to be /dev/sda and /dev/sdb
suddenly became /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc (and the new one
was now /dev/sda). No matter how I tried to switch cables or
ports, they kept to be detected as 2nd and 3rd sata-drives.

So I agree there should be at least some basic info about
disk-labels in the handbook.
