I have found (and it works consistently) that once I have assigned a HD to an external, it remains that way as long as you turn on the computer, then plug in the HD afterwards, without plugging in any other USB stuff first.

Once in a great while I do forget and plug in another USB drive that steals the assigned letter first and I have to use that procedure to change back however.
