Thanks for the amplification on that - wasn't sure as I didn't see a drive name

Also, I believe the chflags command mentioned will hide them from the finder window as well. Essentially, the drive will be mounted but hidden and therefore inaccessible. Not sure that's the best idea for a system drive.
I used to leave my drive icons on the desktop in the past as well, but then realised I NEVER clicked on them. I always accessed the drives via finder windows. Much cleaner desktop. [emoji4]

Yes - I just want the system drive icon hidden from the desktop. I don't mind the other drives showing the times I want them showing. There are times I'd rather deal with the drives when they show on the desktop and not the sidebar in a Finder window.
