Hide Your Hard Disk Drive Partitions

Step-1.
Go to Start > run > type “ diskpart ”.

a dos window will appear with following like that.....

DISKPART>

Step-2.
Then type “ list volume ” without quote

It will look like this.....



Step-3.
If u want to hide drive F then type “ select volume 5 ″ without quote

then a message will appear in same winwods { Volume 5 is the selected volume }

Step-4.
now type " remove letter F ” without quote

now a message will come { DiskPart successfully removed the drive letter or mount point }.



sometime it requires the reboot the computer .

Diskpart will remove the letter. Windows XP is not having capabilty to identify the unkown volume.

How to come back / recover:

Don’t afraid, all of your Data still safe .

to Come back the Drive repeat the process . but in Step-4, which is shown in this post replace “ remove ” to “ assign ”

means type “ assign letter F ” without quote

The above method won’t work for the drive containing Operating System.
and it can also be done using System Manager>Storage Manager.
