Not sure what the mins or maximums are, but I've always thought of the Boot Priority as somewhat of an integer scale (ie: -10 to 10). And yes, you suspicions are correct: you can change the boot priority without destroying any data.

The exact opposite is true: the highest priority determines the boot drive.

Of course the absolute value of 0 is lower than that of -1, but mathematically -1 is lower than 0.

Whoops! Yeah, I caught my mistake after reading what you said (duh). Edited my post so I wouldn't look like a complete idiot. Too late!  lol

Thanks for the crystal clear explanation as always Thomas!
