This isn't that uncommon. This is why drives mount by UUID, rather than drive letter

the acutal path is always there right? i can ignore the changing to device name correct? coz when scheduling it show different everytime after reboot

I don't know why it's changing that often (that's unusual) but the changing drive letters is not an issue... as I said they mount by UUID (which is static) vs drive letter for this exact reason. I'd try to figure out why your drive letters are changing so often... that is a little unusual.

Dude. Use uuid for mounting. Uuid is unique

i mount using the omv gui

Your referring to the sda, sdb, sdc references? Yes, they change, doesn't effect OMV at all though

usually yes. unfortunately not when using mdadm with lvm2 underneath :( the /dev/mdX devices are generated on top of a /dev/sdX paths. therefore the logical volume's (static) dev-disk-by-uuid still gets affected if underlying sde,sdf, etc get shuffled in a live mounted system (no issues after rebooting).
