Default Windows registers my Prime HDD as removable
On my toolbar, the "Safely remove hardware" icon is always visible because Windows thinks my primary SATA hard drive is removable.
How do I fix this ?

Please help

Thanks.....

SATA drives are technically hot swappable. You could right click the taskbar and just "always hide" the icon.

It's hot-swappable, don't worry about it.
