  I'm not sure what exactly those block devices are (as in if they're
  raided in hardware or they actually represent physical spinning disks).
  But I do know that writing data to sda causes that data to be readable
  from sdg.
  
  The same is true:
   sda -> sdg
   sdb -> sdh
  
  That is what causes those UUIDs to be similar.  Everything is
  functional, you just have to know that if your root device is /dev/sdg
  that you should probably not write data to /dev/sda thinking you can use
  it as a disk.
