Raspberry Pi OS • My external drive is detected as such despite being listed in fstab

$

Hello,

I would like to use an external USB 3.0 hard drive as an "internal" drive. It shouldn't be shown as "removable" media and there shouldn't be "eject" buttons next to it in file explorer.

I've added the drive to fstab with defaults,nofail options. On boot, it is mounted into the mountpoint I've set in fstab but still shown as "2.0 TB storage" and an eject icon is shown for it in the taskbar. How to prevent this ?

Thanks.
