    My installation drives appear in the "remove / eject media"


    When I go to the "safely remove drives" thing to eject a thumbdrive or external drive I have plugged into my computer, all three of my internal drives appear in this list, including the C drive the OS is installed on.

    How do I get these to not appear here?

    Could be setup as hotswap in bios.

    Nothing to worry about, all my sata ports are set up like that.
