Hi,

i see that i messed up "h" and "k" in my explanation of the fight over
the link targets in /dev/disk/by-id. So another attempt:

sdh has a unique serial number GSTD02TB230102. Thus we see in
  https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2024/01/msg00667.html
these two links:

  /dev/sdh        /dev/disk/by-id/ata-Gigastone_SSD_GSTD02TB230102
  /dev/sdh1       /dev/disk/by-id/ata-Gigastone_SSD_GSTD02TB230102-part1

sdi and sdj share the serial number GST02TBG221146. So the concurrent
attempts to create the links let only these two survive:

  /dev/sdi        /dev/disk/by-id/ata-Gigastone_SSD_GST02TBG221146
  /dev/sdj1       /dev/disk/by-id/ata-Gigastone_SSD_GST02TBG221146-part1

sdk and sdl share GSTG02TB230206. The survivors are:

  /dev/sdk        /dev/disk/by-id/ata-Gigastone_SSD_GSTG02TB230206
  /dev/sdk1       /dev/disk/by-id/ata-Gigastone_SSD_GSTG02TB230206-part1

The next system startup might yield other survivors.


Have a nice day :)

Thomas
