I looked though it's manual but couldn't find any mention of if you can or can not change the order of the drives. I was reading up and there were forum posts about some cards being able to detect the drive itself and adjust if it physically changed to a different port, but not all cards can do that. Those posts were from 2009 though.
Also, another thing I just realized. Was it a stupid move to power on my system with the card, but with the drives disconnected? The drive complains during the POST that all the drives from the previous configurations are gone.... is my configuration toast now or will it still remember it when I plug my drives back in?
