I'm not certain what you mean by that, but I would guess that you want |
| 8 |
the nvme disk to show up as /dev/sda, and the USB disk(s) to show up |
| 9 |
as /dev/sd[b-z]. |

It is not possible to accomplish this using udev; the kernel owns the |
| 12 |
/dev/sdX device namespace, and will sequentially create devices nodes |
| 13 |
for SCSI-like block devices using that namespace. There is no way to |
| 14 |
change that using a udev rule. |
