Navigate to apps/nautilus/desktop. Deselect volumes_visible. If you want your other volumes to be visible, you will have to add them manually: Right click on desktop and click 'Create Launcher...' Change the type to 'Location' Change the name to suit you. Browse for the volume. Change the icon to the 'block device' icon at /usr/share/icons/YOUR_THEME/devices/48/block-device.svg Click OK.
