On starting up (or rebooting, obviously) this machine it always presents me with a box with the heading Authentication is required to mount WDC WD20EARX-00PASB0 (/dev/sda1) (screenshot attached). I'm running the latest versions of everything (F33 workstation, KDE 5.20.5) presented to me but this has been happening for a long time, I don't even remember how many Fedora versions (I started at F15 I think). It appears after the KDE login (I autostart KDE), but doesn't happen at all if I simply log out of my KDE session and then log back in. Normally I give it my password (not the supervisor password, though my account is in the sudo-ers group) and carry on. To send this message I have purposely *not* given it the password and haven't closed the window, so it's still there but everything seems to function normally, so it's even not true, the disk must be mounted (it's the only hard drive mounted) so the authentication is *not* required. Just closing the window seems to be fine, too. Any idea what's being upset here? TIA
