unsure on how to word this but ill try, recently built a new pc and using the old storage drives from my old PC and got them installed in the new case (Lian-Li PC o11-XL) and the storage bays are labeled as hotswappable, so my drives are listed twice in the file explorer and in the taskbar theres a safely remove device option for the 3 drives, is there a way to change this so i dont accidentally remove a drive and to remove the drives from file explorer? will include screen shots to help
