Multiple Physical Drives in VM Guest

Hello.

I have a VM and within the VM, I have the primary drive as a RAW image. I then added two physical drives to the VM using UUID. See below:

sata0: local-hd2:101/vm-101-disk-1.raw,size=40G
sata2: /dev/disk/by-uuid/F0DE690FDE68CF80,backup=no,size=410400M
sata3: /dev/disk/by-uuid/503C85DF3C85C088,backup=no,size=305000M


The problem I am having is in Windows, it shows Primary drive (C), but the other two drives (which are the same physical drive, just two partitions) keep changing... Sometimes SATA2 = Drive D and other times it = Drive E. This is causing problems with shares that I have setup in Windows.

I have to use the UUID because I sometimes add a USB drive to my server for backups and when I do this, it troughs off all the /dev/sdb, /dev/sdc settings... So, to get around this, I switched to UUID.

Any suggestions on how to resolve Windows from switching the drives around?

Thank you!
