Hello:

TDE handles external USB hard drives the same as internal
non-USB (ie SATA) drives. After plugging in an external USB
hard drive it only places a device icon to the desktop if
device icons for unmounted/mounted hard disks are enabled.
I don't want to enable those icons because I have ~20 partitions
I don't want to put on the desktop as devices. Still I would
like to have removable USB hard disk icons on the desktop
similarly to flash disks. How can I do it?

In my opinion removable hard disk should be distinguished
from internal non-removable drives in this context.

Thanks,

Hi Istvan,

have you tried to go to "Desktop -> Behaviour -> Device Icons" in Trinity
Control Center?

Hello:

Maybe my explanation was not clear enough.
Under "Desktop -> Behaviour -> Device Icons" I can select mounted/unmounted "Hard Disk Volume". If I enable these all my partitions' volumes are placed on the desktop which I don't want. If I disable them then even removable USB
hard disks aren't placed on the desktop. That is, the system doesn't
distinguish between removable external hard disks and internal hard disks. I'd like external hard disk to be handled as "Removable Medium" instead of
"Hard Disk Volume".

Cheers,

Istvan
