I have just built a computer using two S-ATA hard drives, and everything
works well except that the 'Safe to Remove Hardware' icon appears in the
system tray.

I don't have any removable hardware hooked up to the computer, so of course
I clicked on it, and it says I can stop using my C and D drives, which are
fixed hard drivers ( C is a Western Digital Raptor and D is a Seagate
Barracuda).

The mother board is a Asus A8N-SLI deluxe. The system reads the SATA
drivers correctly, and boots etc. I just want to stop this icon from
appearing in my system tray.

Has anyone heard of this issue? I have googled it, and have come up with
nothing. Any help would be appreciated.
 
Yes! I have the same problem. I just set-up my new Gateway p.c. and its been
there the whole time. Confusing.
 
Thanks!

I wonder if there is any way to turn this icon off or disable this feature?
