M17xR2 and Vertex 3 - DISKPART?

after getting a faulty Vertex 2 i swapped it for a Vertex 3 120gb (ready for m18x upgrade)

when i go into bios(A10) Drives show up as

Sata Operation - AHCI

Sata Hard Drive 1 - OCZ 120gb

Sata Hard Drive 2 - Momentus XT 500gb (firmware DEM1 ??? dell accidentally gave me this drive with my other Momentus 500gb )

When i go to install windows 7 and before install (SHIFT F10 to bring up cmd)

i run diskpart - list disks and it always shows

DISK 0 - Online - 465GB (HDD)

DISK 1 - Online - 111GB (SSD)

Shouldn't this be the other way around as it causes problems when mklink /J on "User" dir to HDD.

If i take HDD out and run diskpart it show as DISK 0 (make it active and it boots to windows) soon as i put HDD back in it becomes DISK 1 again.

OCZ is installed near battery and HDD next to the CPU (so right locations)

driving me mad as i just want to move User dir to HDD.

any help would be fantastic
