hard drive FIXED: Windows 10 thinks hard drive is removable

[Depthcharger]

I've build a new AMD PC and recently come across this problem where Windows thinks all or some HDD/SSD as a removable device and saw some places where you have to fiddle around with the Registry settings to make them 'Disappear'.
BUT! There is another solution I've found.
Go to the BIOS and look for SATA Configuration or settings. If Hot plug/SATA Port Hot Plug is enabled by default, Disable it. Save setting and restart and Problem solved.

Hope this helps!

Hm, makes sense, I had edited my registry to get my crucial ssd to stop popping up the removable drive thing.

Wonder why they keep random stuff like this on by default, gigabyte needs to take a serious look at their default settings
