But please can you get in touch, I would really like to try out your app, or what is the name for it, maybe I can find a regular torrent elsewhere. All the best. Michael @DemonXstreeM

Great work DSX. But please can you get in touch, I would really like to try out your app, or what is the name for it, maybe I can find a regular torrent elsewhere.

All the best.

It is designed for OS X 10.5 or higher. Note: It not only hides it from the desktop but hides it from finder so any hidden drives will not show up at all in finder but you can still open them from the terminal if you need to or you can make them unhidden again with the program. I do not have a web based file sharing account so this is torrent link. You must have a Demonoid account to download it. Once you download it feel free to re-up it to a web based account and provide the link so that more people can have access to it. http://www.demonoid.com/files/details/1937786/6774360/ Thx, DXS --exitus acta probat I made a small program that will let you show or hide individual hard drives on the Mac desktop.

the name ‘Macintosh HD’ is the name of your hard drive. If you have changed this from the standard install, you will need modify the command.
