The Yosemite Sidebar Blues

I store all my data files on an external drive, and I’ve populated the Finder’s Favorites sidebar with common shortcuts to folders on that external drive. My backup data drive (cloned from the source drive via SuperDuper) stays in one of the Mac Pro’s drive bays.

Now here’s the weird part: After a reboot, my Favorites sidebar shortcuts point to the same folders on the backup data drive instead of the source data drive.

I’ve been able to replicate this odd behavior. I’m fairly certain it’s a bug, as I haven’t seen the same behavior in Mavericks. I’m curious to know if other Yosemite users are encountering the same issue.
