No, actually not.
In "normal" setups (no multipath, fancy storage etc), all disks are /dev/sd*
The only exception is KVM Virtualization if people still use the (old, featureless, not useful) virtio-blk instead of the (better, newer, more features) virtio-scsi. The solution there: use virtio-scsi, and disks are again /dev/sd*.
In my desktop, /dev/sda can become sdb or sdc on the next boot, if I happened to hotplug some other disk (maybe usb, maybe esata). Using of /dev/sd* names has been deprecated for a reason. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
