When you add a drive to your PC, by default it gets a drive letter, whether it is a removable drive or even a fixed hard drive inside of your PC. Lets take a look at how we can hide these drives.

Note: This will completely hide the drive, even from you. You'll have to open up disk management to un-hide it.

To hide a drive you need to open a disk management snap-in, to do this right click on computer and select manage.
