Firstly,

Why would you hide your hard disk, well, there are diffrent reasons. Someone want to make his computer window look cool and hide some of them. Or you may want to hide your hard disk to protect your important files, if you hide it, other users on your computer won’t be able to open it.

So let get's Started;-
