    If you mean that you get the "Safely remove hardware" icon in the systray, that is normal with SATA drives. Because the SATA specification calls for them to be hot pluggable, Windows sees them as removable.

    On mine I'd like to be rid of that icon, as I can't remove the drive cage without taking the graphics card out first, but I can't find any way to do it.
