Yes. The D drive changes because the slave has a primary partition. Drive
order is
Mater Primary partition (C)
Slave Primary Partition (D)
Master extended partition (E and F are logical drives within partition)
Slave extended partition (G and H are logical drives within partition)
This will go back to C D and E once the slave is removed. If you install a
new slave later on, make sure you do not create a primary partition on it
and it will not change the drive letter order.

I am transferring data from a three-partition drive, mounted as slave, to
another three-partition drive. Drive letters on master drive were C, D, E
as single. When second drive was mounted as slave, master drive's letters
became C, E, F, and second drive's letters became D, G, H.
When I finish transferring data, and dismount slave, will former master
drive, now single, change from C, E, F to C, D, E, as wanted, or do I
have to do something?
