There's always the chance the previous owner just moved the drives around
as their method of "initializing" the system. ie, if the load source
drive has been moved to another slot I can see where the system would get
a little confused. So shifting the drives around may have some benefit.
I'd write down where they are currently at before you tread down that
path.
