- well this is quite a simple one and might not work for you, but if you have any other account on your mac( admin) then you can simply 1. go to system preferences 2. select the user from the left...

If you want to hide just one:
SetFile -a V "/Volumes/DiskName"

Use a small V to bring it back:
SetFile -a v "/Volumes/DiskName"

You need to restart Finder (or reboot) for the change to be visible. I do this for my TimeMachine/TimeCapsule volumes.

To Brian:

SetFile -a V "/Volumes/Bootcamp\ HD"
-bash: SetFile: command not found

What's wrong?

It looks like you need the developer tooks (Xcode and company) installed, and you have to "tell it where it is," according to http://www.mackb.com/Uwe/Forum.aspx/macintosh/2...
