Don,

They are controlled by two different BASEDEV drivers with the U2W driver
first.  One is the 2940U2W and the other is the 2940U.  The BIOS is turned
off of the 2940U controller.  And the order of the drivers, as I
understand it, is so that the U2W can get control first since my boot
disks are there. So I'd disinclined to switch the order unless I can get a
significant number of members on this list to tell me it won't be a
problem.
