| Another way to reduce drivebar clutter would be to *not* display drives that aren't used, or are infrequently used (they'd still be accessible from the directory pane). For example, I have two drives that are used only by some hardware I have attached to the computer. They're not intended for user access, yet they display on the drivebar. Is there some way to remove them from the drivebar? |

I use an external card reader with 4 slots and I use only one of them. I was able to remove drive mapping of other three drives which I do not use by following these steps
1. Open Disk management (Right click My computer > Manage > Storage)
2. Right click on the drive which you would like to hide
3. Click "Change drive letter and Path"
4. Select your drive and press remove.
Now this drive will not appear in windows or X2.
